🛑 Understanding Brake Fade and Its Implications

Brake fade occurs when excessive heat reduces the effectiveness of your braking system. Signs include increased stopping distances, a spongy pedal feel, and decreased confidence during aggressive driving. Without adequate cooling, components like pads, rotors, and fluid can overheat, leading to diminished performance and potential safety risks.

Consistent braking performance is vital for track success. Proper brake cooling:

  • Maintains optimal operating temperatures
