You have it backwards. CCBs wear significantly faster for track cars. So using CCBs for performance driving will break your wallet.

CCBs makes most sense for street cars, heavy street cars. Over the course of 7-8 years, it may be cheaper to own CCBs than steel brakes on such a car and driving environment. Over 7-8 years, you would have spent $9-$10k on steel replacements, about breakeven for the CCBs over the same mileage. (Assuming 10k miles a year)
