Brake Temperature Strips?
Has anyone ever used brake temperature paint/strips on their Black Series?

I was wondering how hot the brakes get for those who do road courses since I am deciding on what pads, fluid to use for the future.

Stock pads, SRF fluid with ESP off. If you get them hot enough to need temp strips, you're beyond the club driver level.

I agree with Jim, stock pads are fine at the track and I've also run the stock fluid without any problems.

A good cool down lap is important to brake and rotor health.

Do the C63 share the same pads with the Black Series?

They're different part numbers but sure do look the same.

The front pads are the same and will fit. The rears I'm not sure about, but assume they'll be the same as well.

I wonder if they are the same compound? If so that would be fantastic!
