Default Factory break fluid on gt3?

Do they use high boiling point fluid from the factory for pccb? I always use motul 660 but i will be rushed to change it in 1 week.

so stock pads and fluid.. i’ll probably drive at 5/10ths but being shy with the brakes worries me

I've used factory fill with PCCBs on track without a problem. In my case it was 2 weekends and the fluid was less than 12 mo. old. I flushed it after the second weekend.

Factory fluid is not especially high performance, but you can drive much harder than 5/10 before you find its limits.

I use Motul fluid. I think OE fluid is probably fine but I don’t mess with brakes or steering on the track.

Factory brake fluid is about the same temperature rating as ATE Gold / Blue. Not quite as high as RBF600/660.
