What pads and brake fluid were you using? If you noticed any kind of fade or spongy brake pedal, I highly doubt the OEM rotors were the problem, as they can more than hold their own with heavy track use.
The link says it only saves 14 lb, where are you getting the other 54 lb?

Running ebc pads, far from an extreme track day pad and standard fluid, didn’t have pedal travel, they just got stupidly hot. Could see the heat marks on the rotors and I weren’t exactly hard on them, 348mm on a 1500kg car is a bit small
Well, it’s simple. Once you remove the old brake rotors, pads, and calipers, don’t put on anything in its place.
If its your first track day, no. You'll be learning the car, not going 100%. But if you decide its the thing for you, then you should do so afterwards.
I did my first track day at 4500 miles and had no issues. At one point I thought I cooked my trans bc I began to smell something like the clutch was burning. Turns out that it was just the brakes getting really hot. Never experienced brake fade throughout the day so I don’t think you’ll need to do and fluid changes.
