An old ponycar's last problem is power - I'm sure with headers, exhaust, and a solidly (but legally) rebuilt motor, you'd have more than enough power. Most cars in the class are below 200whp - but they are also small, light, with great handling and braking. Power is not that important in autocross.

Can you reduce the pad surface area thus reducing friction?
Cut a slot out of the center of the pad?
