I think you are kind of jumping ahead a couple of steps by going right to brake ducts, but hey if you feel that's what you want to do...
The StopTech street performance pads obviously aren't going to take the constant abuse and I'm sure what you had at Summit was brake fade. So the logical thing to do would be to upgrade pads in the front. If you were to still experience brake fade with actual "track" pads then, yeah I can see starting to look into ducting the brakes.
Also you should be fine by just upgrading front pads -- the StopTech's in the rear will be fine... unless your car has some sort of crazy brake proportion from the factory.
But you all seem to enjoy the extra work, so have at it!
edit - dtc60's might be too aggressive for street tires, I think the XP10's are less aggressive and should be fine on street tires.
