Just for the knowledge ,which one is more "responsible" for brake fade pads or discs?
For example i got brake fade ,what to blame first?( except from the driving style)

pads
thats why racing pads can withstand higher temperature..once reached-brake fade occurs

excellent , as i thought.
it is very interesting what they have learnt in these preparation courses to get these flawed knowledge .

Old brake fluid can also be the cause. Then pads. Then possibly brake fluid again!

That's kinda what I meant. You replace the fluid and upgrade the pads only to find that the fluid becomes the weak point and you have to upgrade the fluid (or change it a lot).
