I think that a lot of folks here talk a lot of **** about things that won't matter to the majority of people looking for advice for tracking their cars. A lot of the advice I see and problems I hear about seem to really only be issues for fairly advanced drivers. Am I wrong? Is the climate up here in Michigan that much more forgiving?
every track day i see a minimum of three cars failing due to brake fluid boiling, most of them are on the super blue. they are rated at 395f, not much better than stock or parts store off the shelf fluid. i am sure they are fine for street and autox use, but they are complete garbage for track use.

ate super blue sells well mainly because of guys on the internet, its like hawk brake pads (hps especially)
