The holes are really a ridiculous thing - they don't do much for the cooling and your greatest accomplishment by drilling them will be to reduce the amount of 'swept area', the total surface area that the friction material works against. So by drilling them you're actually screwing yourself out of braking power.

Try this: when I lived in the mountains I drove hard also but I did it by quick jabs on the brakes only when needed. Setting up the curve and finding your line is much more important - smoothness and consistency is what wins. When you do that right you'll get much more pleasure from it than toasting your tires and brakes.
