So after removing the boosters on my racecar, the brakes have been working really really well.

This past weekend I did a race at Wesbank raceway, and they really did work great. One thing that I noticed, was that as the race progressed, the brake pedal needed to be pushed deeper and deeper... The brakes still worked excactly as expected, hitting a certain brakemarker still landed me on the apex, so I dont think its the pads overheating. They are nice and firm again in the next session, after standing for 2 or so hours...

Im thinking the brake fluid might be overheating? Thoughts?

It's running DOT4, made by a standard oils company

I'd compare the wet/dry rating with something like the ATE

If it was the pads the pedal would not drop, try a heat sheild above the exhaust header.
