I had vented Brembo rotors, Hawk pads, fresh Dot-3 Fluid and I went to a run through the Devil's Triangle. Brakes performed well at the beginning of the spirited run. I hit 2 blind apexes and had to brake heavy, came to another apex that looked like a left hand curve but was actually a hairpin right. I braked hard and the pedal hit the floor. I wound up going on a field trip in the bushes. A couple weeks later at ZDayz Fall Fling, I rode with MegaZ through the Dragon tailing some forced induction 350Zs (one boasting of 600 HP). The 350s tried to run off and leave us, but Mega stayed right on their bumper... ...but halfway through the Dragon, his brakes began to fade. 350Zs began to pull away. I installed 350Z track rotors on my car and Mega's March of 06. We ran with the 350s at the Dragon, ran Nelson's Ledges track all day (very fast track), and returned to the Devil's Triangle. No brake fade.
