does the brake get weaker as you go through a practice session or race????

if so when i had my venom, the master cylinder bolts where you bleed the fluid into were a bugger for leaking.....get a couple of fibre washers and put one in each hole which will give it a really tight seal.

also check if the pads are applied to the disk at the same time....again the brake carrier can slip on the axle...best thing to do is loosen off the carrier, cable tie the brake pedal fully on and nip up the carrier where it is pushed to by the pads.

failing that, if all else fails, the seals could possibly be going on the master cylinder
