To add to it, say if you are a beginner (which I am, never tracked my car) would I really need a new set of pads after my first event? In my case I would be racing on the VIR.
I imagine first time around I would be driving rather slow-er. Don't even want to think about the rotors, ZCP here and that would be over a grand for all 4.

I can tell you my experience: last year was my first year attending any motorsports events. I made it to the end of the year (6 months with this car) on stock brakes and PSSs. That includes 3 track days and 7 autocross events. My PSSs are shot, but brakes still have some life. I expect to consume tires and brakes at a greater rate this year with a little experience under my belt, but, as a whole, it was very reasonable.
