So I went to the track for the first time ever, pretty nervous. The second time I run, I get through the end and going up on the bank I realize my power brakes are gone. I've got a 6 month old brake booster. Get back, check everything. Master cylinder is fine, no losing any brake fluid, BRAKE BOOSTER. It's out I guess, what else could it be? Also, last time it when out, I was getting on it. What causes that crap? I don't understand how ragging on it makes the brakes go out, just boggles my mind. I'm so pissed I'm rambling. Any advice is greatly appreciated, what am I doing wrong?

Im gonna bet that its some kind of vacume issue. Why??? Usually whan there is agressive driving, it can put stress on many of the cars componets, such as ps, a/c, motor mounts etc, including vacume lines.

Maybe the check valve on the booster is bad. Cause if you're going down the track at WOT, there's no vacuum to build up. Does the booster hold vacuum after you shut the car off? You should be able to get a few "powered" applications after you shut of the engine.
If the boosters keep breaking, maybe the master is leaking into the booster. It's been known to happen.
I'll drive with broken power steering, but not with an unworking power brake booster.
