Default brakes

When I was looking for brakes I spoke to a guy who did quite a bit of track time with a C6 ZO6 and was having alot of problems with his brakes. He told me if it was just for looks go for it but if there was going to be any track time stay away. He was in the process of a law suit with GM over the brake system. When the calipers would get hot the bleeder screws would back out and no front brakes, how would you like that a Laguna Seca. After changing the pads a few times the bolts were stripping out, and there is 6 pads per front caliper. He was upgrading to bear equipment. I decided to call Tobin at Kore 3 and went with the C6 Z51 kit. Good luck in what ever you chose.
