Question is... who here thinks its necessary to bleed after each event? I did so after my first event (might explain why they are holding up so well?) but I’m not sure if I truly need to do it before every event. Lots of different opinions.. what’s your take?
I just got my M2 and have not tracked it. However I track my STI regularly.
My advice would be to bleed your brakes every time before you track as part of your pre-track prep. that is not to say that if you daily your car, after a hot track event, you should also bleed your brake. Change your fluid every 2-4 events. I don't like Motul. Try ATE fluid, they are awesome for me at least in the Subaru.
