Just some toughts about braking and brake fading.
Beginning of this year I modded my car's braking linkages without use of silicone tubing. The braking movement thus was set up only through EPA ( end point adjustment ). I set the maximum braking point so I can brake effectively without locking, nor spin out at mid cornering.
I feel the braking effect is more solid and definite without existency of silicone tubing. I test this not just for 5 minutes ...., but for the whole race duration involving continuous braking at 2 spots. The braking is always consistent without fading or sagging effect.
I also shortened the brake rod to minimum length for a tidy look on my car.
