what did you do? overheat the entire system and run off the track, or lock them up and spun off the track?

practice more at Buttonwillow.

over used the brakes, didn't break in the pads correctly (they were installed the day before) and glazed the rotor and have air in the system.

the rotors are glazed

He has to resurface the rotors and scuff down the pads so he can bed them in properly
