well lads, after a trackday saturday ive notice the pedal has become a lot softer and it was happening on the track, taking more effort to stop the car! is this either down to the pads being fuked or did i just boil the brake fluid, sme has evaporated and i jus need to change that to high performance fluid and all will be back to normal? i have new vttr pads as well, should i bother throwing them in? pads aren't totally gone yet?

change your brake fluid for dot 5.1 and go from there,,,
I reccomend AP racing dot 5.1 formula fluid,
sensible price and should be changed once a year anyway,

For now just let a little fluid out of each caliper if it is still spongy then new pads required. And be sure to replace it with DOT 5.1 fluid soon.
