Brake rotor wear after 3 track days
7 Attachment(s)
After 3 track day with Hawk DTC 60, the front rotors look like this. The rotor surface is smooth
Should I replace them immediately? |

Your hysteria is not welcome, especially as you do not completely understand what it is you are advising against. |
Ok. Then sorry fot that.
I deleted my posts to avoid further confusion. Btw. I googled before i posted, i found several warnings, but i'm definivly not as deep into this, than others. E.g. i found this is considered as "will break under load". https://www.at-rs.de/files/blog/Scha.../Bild-3-T2.jpg So whats the difference? |

Thanks for all feedbacks.
Does that mean the pad is too aggressive for the rotor? Or/and the rotor exceeded operating temperature? If I upgrade to a better performance rotor, will the rotor have heat checking again from track use? |
1 possibly 2 did the rotors change color or warp? 3 Maybe (checking? I presume you mean the surface cracking/crazing)
what brake fluid, did they fade? Might change my answer to 1 maybe 2 but not 3 |

I didn’t experience any brake fade / soft pedal feel at the track. |
Are you using any of the nannies, traction/ stability control? They use the brakes to control wheel speed and create a lot of excessive heat on the brake system.

You should try cryo treated rotors for your next set. I heard after they sit in -300F freezers they can last up to 3x longer.

It could be from rt660 tires. I go full speed at the track; I really “drive” the car. |
