Default Need Recommendations for Brake Pads

I'm looking for recommendations on brake pad replacement and possible shim additions.

I have a stock 2002 Z06. I've autocrossed it, but will be taking it to Katech at Autobahn CC in Joliet for two track days at end of July. I've hear that I should flush the brake fluid and change brake pads, and maybe install titanium brake pad shims to reduce heat transfer to the calipers.

Car is 99% street use, and I'm comfortable with the amount of dusting that the stock pads produce. Given some bad experiences with ceramic pads by others, I'll probably want to avoid those. Mostly I want to insure that I've got the brakes I need for the track days.

Thanks for any suggestions you might have.

Terry
