I'm suggesting all the brake work be done at once. Brake pads and lines plus a fluid flush to replace the fluid with DOT4 track fluid since you are planning to track the car.

I'm also STRONGLY suggesting you learn how to do it yourself since it's not difficult and needs to be done OFTEN when you track.

I'm stating that the hard part about brake lines is bleeding the brakes afterwards.

It helps to use a flare wrench to remove them from the car, but it's not a requirement. (Flare wrenches are inexpensive.)
