Thanks for all the responses, guys. I should make it clear that I'm not racing - I'm still in the green run group, having now done only 3 DEs (and 2 were only 1 full track day due to IDS and weather, so really only the equivalent of 2 weekends). I'm not looking to improve performance, I'm thinking more safety-wise. I don't want to put a whole bunch of performance stuff into this car, because I'm not sure how much tracking I'm going to do with it. (may use a different car, not quitting DEs!)
I'm definitely going to replace the brake fluid and upgrade the pads before the next session.
Where do you find ATE Blue brake fluid? Never seen it in the local autoparts store - is it a special order type thing?
What's a good pad for track driving like I'm doing? (Rookie, less powerful car) I don't care about brake dust or noise, because I'll swap them out for the street pads when not at the track (car is a somewhat daily driver as well). I also don't want to break the bank with $400 worth of brake pads!
Thanks!
Chris
