      I just attended my first Time Attack event. It was a pretty fast and long track and during training I experienced some alarming brake fade. It happened 4 or 5 times in the braking zones after the long straights. Suddenly when I braked I had maybe 30% less brakes. After having run straight into the run off zones for the last time I decided to call it a day.

      I run Endless Brake Pads most aggressive track pads for CCD (CCD-R) Not sure if you have them in US but here in Europe they are very well renowned and come recommended by other high profile ACR-E owners. I have Motul RBF 700 Factory Line brake fluid.

      I have no modifications to my brake set up other than the TKO Brake Line kit. My theory is that I need more cooling (confirmed by a Swedish National Champion in Time Attack, who also runs an ACR-E) So, my question is, has anyone who has run into these problems bought the TKO Brake Cooling kit? If so, what are your experience?
