On track without braided lines?!? You sir have BIG balls! (or they look very similar to standard rubbers...)

Did you use those pads down to the metal? No wonder they went like that, especially on track. First port of call would be some decent pads, discs and braided lines personally, not sure what you have/had at the moment.

It was yellow stuff pads we had and was over half left when we started the day.
that front left caliber gave us troubel all day. pedal geting long after so many laps then when pulled in lots of smoke from here. the piston must not have been reterning or something. we went round there in are uk spec lude are breaks we supper never got long and alleays sharp and crisp.
