From what I've heard Pocono isnt too bad on brakes.

BUT

Also remember that being new, as mentioned before you will likely overuse the brakes, stock fluid (also mentioned) will have a much higher tendency for fade and boil. The low pads also increase heat. So in short, you at LEAST need fluid and pads.

I've had brake failure before (not in Viper, but I've seen it happen in one) and it's not fun. AT ALL.
