I tracked mine with PFC 08 pads and Motul RBF600 fluid (stock lines). Instructor level driving on Bridgestone RE-11's. No issues. Aftermarket lines aren't necessary in my opinion for HPDE until your car ages significantly. I just put aftermarket lines (ECS, nice piece of kit btw) on my 2002 M3 that has a very significant amount of track time on it, including Laguna (hard on brakes), the Nurburgring (yeah, it's hard on brakes), etc. No issues.
