RBF-600 is good - daily and on track run well. I also replaced my clutch fluid with it in an attempt to stretch out my oem clutch slave... the dark fluid over time tells me its going to die a death of a thousand razors anyways.. so be it
Ive got a HS CSC and a new MC ready to drop in when my twin disk goes in ( when the turbos go in ![]() Just get a brake fluid tester for 20 bucks to check it periodically... On track, after rbf600, and carbotech brake pads and some federal 595 rs-rr tires, my weakest link was the "ice-mode" programming trying to kill me (until i figured out how to avoid triggering ice mode) Daily, you will never know its in there.

I only track my TT Z
Yesterday at pocono raceway I lost brakes on the infield turns and had to downshift hard and pump breaks This was on stock fluid after 6 runs of extremely hard breaking from 145 to 60 using carbotech brake pads slotted stop tech rotors. It was obvious I boiled the fluid. Put 4 ways on got off of race line and gave everyone point by's until pit row. At speed this is probably the scariest thing in racing to any driver other than knowing imminent death. So point to make is spend the money and get the fluid if you are ever going to track your car. |

Car & Driver did the same thing back in 2008 on their first test drive and put the car into the wall
![]() Get some proper brake fluid; even Motul 5.1 isn't really up to heavy track duty. Try Motul RBF600/660 or Castrol SRF or Torque RT700 for your needs.
