There was some discussion a while back about how hot the brake discs get on the two place Lancairs. Here's proof. According to Steel Temper Colors, the straw color represents 460°, the purple represents 540°, and the blue represents 570°. This is well over the flame point of even the new synthetic brake fluid, so if your brake hose melts, you'll not only lose control, but you'll have a fire. Y'all be careful out there!
