I rotated my tires yesterday and took note of the temperatures registered on my brake calipers. I placed the temp strips in the center of the calipers over the rotor. They registered 370F on the left and 410 on the right front.
Performance Friction RH665 brake fluid has a dry boiling point of 617F and a wet boiling point of 383F. As mentioned earlier in this thread I cooked my fluid on the Saturday at VIR. Essentially I had 5 days on my brake fluid.
I will remove the dust shield and look into installing the TT deflector plates to cool things off
a little. I think the PP brake setup is very capable on track but need some cooling to keep everything from overheating.
Can anyone suggest any other brake cooling options?
