anyone have problems with sticky calipers on track?

after about 5 mins of really hard driving/braking my driver's rear caliper stuck and was smoking and what not so i took a break

strange...... after about 15 mins when i took the break everything was fine brakes seemed normal and could easily push the car around

does this seem common at all for this only to happen after braking hard alot? im assuming no

does this sound like i should replace the caliper? i mean its stupid cus it works perfect everyday under normal driving

He is implying a suggestion. Check both calipers and brake components.

You could also try a brake fluid flush. Good luck.
