blacksheep-1 replied to the thread Rotor line after HPDE.Looks like some track debris made a lap or two. You might pull the pad to see if anything is stuck to them, but I think other than that....merely a flesh wound (see full post)

Put the whole car up in the air again and flush the brakes with the brake fluid that I got from Summit Racing. Next day delivery without extra charges. Thanks... (see full post)
