Tbh, I've never used Loctite on calliper bolts/pins. If anything I apply a little copper grease so they don't bind/corrode nor break when I try to get it apart again. Just torquing to spec does the job for me.
 
For competition I'm surprised safety wire is not required.
 
Gymkhana doesn't really involve very high speeds, so -while still dangerous- it's not like a brake failure would end up in a 150kph+ trip into the gravel or armco. As a matter of fact you'll put much less energy into the front brakes as you would riding on the road, rear brake is much more important to keep traction.

The front caliper bolts on Hornets have a torque spec of just 22lb-ft or 30N-m. Loctite is kind of required. Loctite will also keep the bolts from corroding/binding.
 
And it has more cylinder than my car...
 
That is the anti social, anti wind noise, anti fun, motorcycle that will let you carry the kitchen sink and the bathtub wherever you want to go, with some patriotic flags for the flair.
