Default 997.2 GT3 brakes and track use
Anybody have problems with the brakes after track use?

Get vibrations under braking hundreds of miles after track day.

Sounds like your disks are warped to me. Did you or do you put the handbrake on after a session? That can definitely warp the disks a bit where you feel a shake.

What pads? Stock? If stock, very likely deposits.
