DOT5 brake fluid should never be mixed with the others.

won't mixing dot 3 and dot 4 lower the boiling point for the fluid tho? He's going to be trakcing the car so with a lower boiling point, he will be more likely to cook the brake fluid thereby, on the track, increasing the risk of having a brake failure, ie, a safety issue on track, not on the street.
