As much as you are driving, and as hard as you are pushing in a very fast car, I suggest you consider caging the car and getting a full race seat, harness and HANS setup.
I have wrecked three times at 100 plus, and totaled two of the cars over the years. I have had other incidents as well. Only one hurt, but I was uninjured other than prolonged soreness. I walked away from all of them and I credit having good safety equipment.

I have a Recaro Profi race seqt , six point harness , Hanns and a harness bar. Only thing im missing is full cage. I looked into those but it seems pretty involved to do it properly. And seems like it would really restrict space in the car as well. Still thinking about it though

You are much more engaged at this time than the more casual visitors to this site, and your car is faster than most. Two good cage sources in CA are http://www.tcdesignfab.com/about and https://trackspecmotorsports.com/roll-cages

The tapered wear may be caused with extreme heat causing the caliper pistons to expand and apply unevenly. I would consider the titanium pad backing plates from Girodisc or similar. Won’t cost much to try that experiment.
