probably because we dont use the chutes .
The silicone fluid has it's pluses for sure ,but silicone has 3 times more compression than regular fluid .
Not something that a foot brake racer might feel comfortable with.
The 570 and 600 works pretty well on Stock Super Stock type cars . ...The Motul fluid in my opinion is even better than the Wilwood fluid .
I used to do SCCA inspections and maintenance on several road race Corvettes .Fluid flush and change is required before EVERY event....All fluids brands show some degradation .
The Motul fluid really was superior to most of the others ,only Wilwood 600 was as good . We're talking cars that get the brakes so hot that the caliper piston boots melt or burn up and the rotors dont last more than 2 races!
