Synthetic brake fluid?
Castrol may be good enough for daily driving but it's got a pretty low dry BP (446*) for track days or autox. So it depends on your application. If you plan to seriously work your brakes I'd recommend something with a BP over 500. Valvoline synthetic is ok, ate super blue and motul are better but overkill for normal daily driving.

Never had a problem with the Castrol doing hot laps, but I haven't observed extended runs.
Good info
