I'm not that good, and at thunderhill on a hot 100+ degree day I had terrible brake fade by the 3rd hot lap. Let me tell you, staring at a 60mph corner coming up when you started at 120mph and your car isn't stopping like you expected is not fun. Our cars have ABS, even with terrible tires and great brakes, ABS should save you.

Not quite sure what it was, switched everything out before my next track day and haven't had a problem yet. I bought a brembo bbk off a wrecked 350z, you should check your local salvage places for a set, the hawk hp+ pads, and ate super blue/motul 600, goodridge ss lines for kicks, haven't had a problem.

These cars are terribly terribly heavy, and if you watch like best motoring, the real pros can get even the brembos of the 350z to die on the 3rd lap of tsukuba, a small track, on the oem tires.

I drive manual, but I hear if you have an automatic, new transmission fluid is key.
