the most optimal solution is to use steel rotors and switch racing pads when you go to the track, when(and if) rotors go just order an aftermarket quality BBK for half the price of CCBs and call it a day
Have a look at the various threads on CCB. The consensus seems to be that the CCB rotors will not last much longer than the iron ones with heavy track use.

On my E92, I needed to replace 2 sets of front rotors and 1 set of rears in 6 years of use with 16~20 track days per year. Those 3 sets of rotors cost me $2700 total tax in (that is in CAD). CCB in Canada are $9775 tax in. So even if CCBs would have lasted the life of my E92, irons are still way cheaper .
