Here's the deal: as the stock pads wear down, the level of fluid in the (in my opinion) too small master cylinder gets lower. There is a sensor in the master cylinder that senses how much fluid there is and illuminates the brake light when it detects a low condition. With the wear of the pads, the level gets low enough to trip the light under hard launches. Don't worry, though, your brakes won't give out tommorow. I drove mine until the light came on under even a moderate launch, then replaced all 4 corners.......So, you can either pour more brake fluid in (which you'll have to remove when you do the brakes), or wait another month and do your brakes.....
