Another big advantage of drum brakes is they are much lighter than discs. But in any case I don't think braking is going to be a shortcoming for the Fit in autocross. If it is, just add some good aftermarket pads.
Here's my Top 10 mods for Stock class autocross:
1. Custom-made ultralight wheels (under 9# each) (set of 8, see below).
2. Two sets of R-comp tires, one for dry, one for wet days.
3. Custom Koni double-adjustable shock/strut inserts.
4. Custom front swaybar, adjustable for force and corner-weighting
5. Upgrade all suspension bushings to custom poly or metal
6. Roll bar
7. Full driver harnesses
8. Weight-slashing program (within the rules)
9. Aftermarket brake pads and fluid
10. Replace all fluids with race synthetics
