When I was at the same track last year, the RBF 600 was still fresh and I was definitely pushing the car harder, I didn't have that issue so yeah, the fluid definitely absorbed some water in the garage over the winter. There was even a Mazdaspeed6 that went off the track at one point because the RBF 660 in that car got really stale and boiled, so he lost the brakes.
That's why I keep a garage dehumidifier on at all times, at least trying to preserve it as long as possible. I'll see how long the RBF 600 we put in last October will stay usable.
