Castro SRF FTW! like Rusty I have been using it for years and is used by many track goers. I change it out yearly as well but it really is overkill. I have yet to see a change in performance or color. I know some track guys that don't change it for up to five years. It is the real deal and provides additional brake and clutch feel.

I respect that you change yearly with track use, cheap peace of mind!
Have you ever tested the fluid prior to flushing? If so I'm curious to the water %.

I use test strips and an electronic tester to determine when a flush is needed for my street car. Do the same for coolant. No reason to change either if they're still within the proper parameters.
