I am not saying that they don't, but for a trackday it wasn't a big issue for me, but if you drive round the track with your foot on the brake pedal then in any car you'll eventualyl get fade - even the mighty GTR!

To reduce the fade- replacement of brake fluid makes a significant difference and I'm hoping someone comes up with a brake line kit for the M5 as I believe that will also make a significant improvement also.
