Brake pads should be inspected before every track event to ensure that there has been no pad damage,
thickness issues, or deterioration.
The brake rotors should be replaced when their thickness decreases to 19mm, when pulsation is noted, or
if cracking or other physical damage is found during inspection. Additionally, the brake pads should be
replaced when replacing the rotors.
Check brake fluid levels often. Some decrease is to be expected as the pads wear. Additionally, the brake
lines should be checked for rubbing or scraping.
