Anyone track with Penrite Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid?

[T41WN.1]

Going to my second ever track day soon and have new pads ready to go, but I keep seeing that people reccommend to change out the brake fluids.

I know people use motul and castrol SRF but I honestly don't think I will ever reach temperatures that high as I rarely track and am still new to push my car to its limits. Plus, I will need to bleed brakes once a year which I can do, but would rather avoid if possible.

I came across Penrite Super DOT 4 Brake Fluid which states the boiling temp to be at 525 F / 270 C. Is this better compared to OEM as I'm still not sure waht the OEM fluid is rated at.

Curious to see if anyone has tried this fluid or should I just suck it up and use motul or castrol srf even if I am still a very new track driver. Thanks.

Wet boiling temp is the most important as brake fluid is hygroscopic (absorbs moisture). That's even more of a reason to do Motul or Castrol SRF because you can technically go longer before doing a flush than other non-track/race specific fluids.

That being said...

Penrite Super DOT 4 wet boiling point 361F
Motul RBF700 wet boiling point 401F
Castrol SRF wet boiling point 518F (some say this is tested at a lower moisture range than Motul, and that it's closer to mid 400F range)
Typical OEM DOT 3 brake fluid wet boiling temp is around 290F, DOT 4 is 310-ish

If you're already doing the brake fluid flush for the track there's no reason not to do good (go-to) fluid from the get go.
