Worn/Faded brake feel after trackday

**$w!ft** · 17-11-2009, 09:38 PM

Hi guys,

Just back from the trackday at bedford on monday, and the car's brakes feel alot less "fresh" than before (no more instant bite), have not returned to the previous sharp feeling; alot more pedal travel, more mushy and just less braking in general...

(this is btw on stock OEM discs and pads)

I fear I might have overbraked on monday

and maybe not given them enough cooling between runs. (didnt do a cooling lap, not sure if I should have?)

Anyway, im thinking that there's hopefully no mechanical damage to the rotors or anything and I would just have to bleed the fluid out completely and fill it back up with new stuff.

What do you think?
