Kit,
You may get away with late braking in a feather weight rice
bucket but if you late brake with a 3350# Corvette going from 110 to
125mph at corner entry you'll get just what I said.

I tend to brake much later on the track simply because I have time to
react... I always run a race compound brake pad on the track, though. Never
had a problem with brakes going away or overheating, as long as I run race
compound pads.
