1) Don't restrict yourself to what's in stock locally. Shipping is minimal enough on pads.
2) Splurge on pads. After tires, they are the next most important component of the car. Worry less about "value for dollar" and more about what you can afford to actually spend. Buy the best stuff you can allow yoursef to spend for.
If you're planning to run one single pad year-round, you're gonna be unhappy on the track or scared shitless in the winter, no way around it. Brembo pads are just too big. I would recommend Mike's favorites, the DS3000s for track and autocross, and something like Axxis Deluxe Plus or maybe Hawk HPS or whatver for in between. I also really like the Stoptech Club Spec pad for competition duty, but you should ask Scott about those since the ones he tried on his car were much more similar to your application than mine was.
