I don't think that's the problem. Honestly OP, I know you track a lot, but you gotta start tracking without using your brakes as often. That's the issue I'm seeing... And/or the ducts aren't properly hooked up
AZP Installs and synolimit like this.

This. I've seen it at mid ohio with the mustang class on speed years back. They were all crashing and losing brakes. It wasn't equipment failure, it was driver. You can't act like its grand turismo and go 100% into every corner and 100% brake last minute then turn.
