I'm a carbotech guy for brake pads, but there is a lot of great stuff out there.
Benefit of carbotechs for enduro is they are very gentle on the rotors. There won't be any problem running a single set of rotors for 12+h, which is one less thing to think about changing on the fly.
Every pair of rotors I consume get scrapped for TMF cracking doing TT, never for thickness. Enduro one would be moderating brake use to limit fatigue, and the rotors would probably go 24h.

Oh gotcha!
Yeah I’m expecting to have to change pads in a 14 hour we are doing. When we use to run an NC MX-5 Cup car in that race it would be metal on metal by the end with similar pads and less weight. We’ll see though. No matter which set we go with I’ll have a set of bedded in rotors/pads ready to swap over. Ideally though as you say if we find something that lasts then it’s less to think about. Or remind my teammates we don’t need to be destroying the brake pedal in every brake zone. Lol
