I ran at Little Talladega last month with Carbotech XP10/8 combination. I was still using stock brake fluid, but my only problem was the bleeder screw on the left front caliper outside slightly loosened and leaked a bit. Luckily the brake paddle gradually softened and I was smart enough to pit in and check it out. I too was hitting around 110 on the straight and braking extremely late. Compared to my 350Z, I was pretty impressed with the brakes. Little Talladega is definately harder on brakes than most of the tracks I've been too thus far. This weekend, I'm heading to Putnam Park. I've upgrade brake fluid to Motul and I'll have 275 width tires on the front for a few runs. This should be a good test of the brakes...
