When you pump the brake pedal several times does it come up any?
Sounds like still have some air in the lines.
I have heard that a person might have to take the car to the dealer and have them use a "scan tool"?

Since the problem happened after the autocross, you may have boiled the brake fluid from the heat generated during braking. You might want to consider upgrading to a fluid with a higher boiling point. Also, your existing fluid might be contaminated with water. To get every bit of air out of the system, consider investing in a MityVac tool. It works for clutches, too.
