Google gives us an article by the deservedly famous Caroll Smith, racing car guru of the first order:
http://www.stoptech.com/tech_info/wp_brakefluid_1a.shtml In the section by James Walker, farther down the page, is this interesting statement: "We won’t even discuss DOT 5 fluids as they are completely unacceptable to the high-performance enthusiast, but we’ll include them in the following table for completeness." Here's another article, this one not so harsh: http://www.xs11.com/tips/maintenance/maint1.shtml And another http://www.se-r.net/brakes/fluid.html Want more? Goggle "DOT 5 Brake fluid", as I did.
