If you are suffering brake fade in the older Vett's like the C3's you might want to switch your brake fluid to silicone brake fluid, I did this in my C3 and it is a much better brake fluid. The silicone disperses moisture and doesnt heat up like the regular fluid which is the cause of brake fade the silicone has a much higher boiling point. Just make sure you get all the old stuff out first. This fluid will also prevent corrosion in your system.

I am planning on this adventure in about a month while on vacation. However, I always observe the "break in" recommendations, varying speed and staying below 60 mph for the first 500 miles. Will be driving our new CTS V Coupe with the ZR1 engine detuned to 556 hp. The car is due to arrive this week.
After the break-in miles, we will be heading southeast.
