I'm running with Yoko ES100's with about 4/32nds of tread and brand new JCW pads/rotors. Does this spell trouble?

No trouble. Tires don't get happy until they're at 4/32nds. I was getting a full season (a dozen track days) out of a set of tires and brake pads. You're fine. Ivan is exaggerating. Heck, he didn't even drive a MINI out there.
