Hi Roger,
I am not familiar with a ban on silicone brake fluid in race cars, mainly
because I've never considered using it. Please elaborate. Is this FIA,
SCCA, who? Where is this cited?
Thanks!
Stan

I've had silicone in my S3-SS for 20 years too. I use LMA in my race cars,
because silicone IS a NO-NO for race cars.
Yes, silicone does have a different feel, but it has been fine. When I
next rebuild the brakes on my father's Ford T flathead V8 roadster, it'll
get silicone too.

----. silicone is a no no for a street car.
Buncha rubbish, used it for 20 years in my street car[s] and never had a
problem.
