What can you tell me about this?

If you see a car with smoking brakes, and the rotors are lighted up red like a torch. What's the fix? Pads and rotors? Just curious, and no, it wasn't on a NSX! =P

I am a very aggressive braker. When I had Porterfield pads, my brakes used to smoke all of the time. My brake temps used to get up to ~700 so, I know they would have been red at night. I solved the cooling issue with ducting similar to what Dali sells and the smoking went away when I started usiing Panther+ pads.

alot of hard breaking for a long time. when you watch f1 racing if you notice the rotors are always glowing.
