Two things to consider - over breaking (as one gets better u need less time on breaks), overly intrusive traction control using breaks to control the car as possibly causes.

100% agree that, generally speaking, a more competent driver uses less brakes. And 100% agree that stability and traction control contribute to heat soak if you are activating the systems. I personally like to turn all the nannies off. Nothing wrong with leaving them on. The ZL1 is an expensive car. I'm new to the ZL1 platform, and to be candid, I am working my way down the ladder from full nannies to full off. I'm taking my time learning the car. After two track events on my first set of DTC70f / DTC60r, the rears are worn more than the front. I attribute that to the nannies silently correcting my attitude.
