Brakes feel spongy after track day.

Did a track day a couple of weeks ago. Haven't driven my car much since then. I've noticed the brake pedal feels a bit spongy. My car only has 10k miles on it. I don't think they're glazed, but then again I guess they might be.

You probably boiled the brake fluid and now you have air in the brake system. Get the brakes bled and consider a more track-oriented brake fluid.
