[QUOTE="RedZ4, post: 133129, member: 1117"] Allow me to chime in. Brakes will fade at Sepang. There is no way one can do more than 6 hot laps without the brakes gradually fading. Been on a 360 modena, 575M and a bunch of other cars and this happened after 5 good hard laps. I'm sure with a more experienced driver then the brake fading would not come into play until later. The one car that doesn't experience too much fade is a race preped Evo 4 that I got a ride in. I'm sure those guys from the Melinium Race can last a good 15 laps without any real compromising brake problems. The have racing pads, brake fluids and steel braided lines installed. I think all street cars have certain limits on the brake fluids and pads so consecutive hard brakes will be a problem. [/QUOTE]
