For some good information on DOT 5 fluid I reccommend you check 
http://www.mossmotors.com tech tips (generic.)  In summary, the 
advantage of DOT 5 is that it will not absorb water and cause rust in 
your brake system and make your system last forever (almost.)  One 
disadvange is that under severe braking (read "race") the fluid will not 
perform as well as conventional.
