If you consider the cost of repairs if your brakes fail @ 125+ MPH after a few trips down the track; then $80 is cheap for the best brake fluid. That being said I'm happy with ATE Super Blue and the Goodridge brake lines. I still have a can and a 1/2 left.

As much as I like the Rotex pads, on aggressive days they do begin to fade.... So I'll go with the R-4 or R4-E Porterfield performance brake pads next time out and just get used to cleaning the wheels more often.....Actually - I still have the OEM pads with less then 1,000 miles of use.....
