PRODUCT DETAILS
Goodridge DOT 4 Performance & Racing Brake Fluid
Boiling your brake fluid at the track? Goodridge makes DOT 4 brake fluid specifically for people who actually use their brakes hard. They've got two versions: Performance (269°C dry boiling point) for fast street driving and track days, and Racing (312°C dry boiling point) for serious track use and wheel-to-wheel racing. Goodridge has been making brake lines and fluid transfer systems for motorsport for decades, so they know what happens when you cook your brakes at the track. Both versions are DOT 4 spec and work with any DOT 3 or DOT 4 braking system.
Why Dry Boiling Point Matters
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, and moisture lowers the boiling point. When brake fluid boils, you get vapor in your brake lines and your pedal goes to the floor. That's why dry boiling point matters. The higher the dry boiling point, the more abuse the fluid can take before it boils. If you're doing hard track sessions and you're cooking your brakes, you need fluid with a high boiling point or you're going to boil the fluid and lose your brakes mid-session.
Goodridge Performance vs Goodridge Racing
The Goodridge Performance fluid has a 269°C dry boiling point. That's good enough for fast street driving and occasional track days where you're not pushing the brakes to the absolute limit. If you're doing a few laps at a track day and you're not running race pads and aggressive brake cooling, the Performance fluid's fine. The Goodridge Racing fluid has a 312°C dry boiling point. That's for serious track use where you're pushing the brakes hard for extended sessions. If you're doing wheel-to-wheel racing or you're running race pads and you're really cooking your brakes, the Racing fluid's what professional racing teams use when they need their brakes to work no matter what.
Works with Goodridge Brake Lines
If you're running Goodridge stainless steel brake lines, this fluid's designed to work with them. Goodridge engineers their brake lines and brake fluid together as a complete braking system upgrade. You don't have to run Goodridge lines to use this fluid, but if you're upgrading both, they're designed to work together.
Compatible with DOT 3 and DOT 4 Systems
Both versions are compatible with DOT 3 and DOT 4 braking systems. You can use them in any car that calls for DOT 3 or DOT 4 fluid. Just don't mix them with DOT 5 or DOT 5.1 fluid because those are silicone-based and they're not compatible.
