None of Tammy? I am amazed that Chucky didn't get the spot light. Good call on the grean cars, but one red slipped in too!

That's okay. I'm sure they posted more this year after they goofed up last year. Plus they moved us up in the lineup because they like me. The Vettes only had two pictures posted.

Finally saw the sun North of the Mason-Dixson today, and I think I am going to drop the top for a ride!!! Need to install a SOLO HI FLOW CAT. Anyone interested?

You got that right CT_Solstice! In Kansas I saw the sun yesterday and took the Eagle out and again today there is sun and the Eagle is going to fly again after I wash off the dust from yesterday. Can't pass up top down weather. It's been a long winter...

Get the car to high speed on a straight, brake hard for a turn
repeat

kennysabarese · « **Reply #2763 on:** March 18, 2011, 10:25:01 AM »

I've done plenty of that, never had a problem with the rotors... only the pads.

Critterman · « **Reply #2764 on:** March 18, 2011, 10:26:09 AM »

You must not be going fast enough, or slowing down hard enough

Sorry I set you up in the first post because I knew how you would reply

kennysabarese · « **Reply #2765 on:** March 18, 2011, 10:38:50 AM »

That could be true. I'm trying to find out how hard he is pushing the car and what actually happens to the rotors. Is something breaking or when you say baking how can you tell it's the rotors and not the pads?

I'd like to hear more about the baking issue

On the way to work today I had an encounter with a peice of fresh roadkill. A rather large, deceased possum appeared in my path, whoever killed it didn't have the decency to flatten it. Couldn't turn left, car along side me, and on the right there was am approaching right turn "island" so I couldn't fully change lanes. Swerved right, caught the dead critter with the left wheels, dodged back narrowly missing the island.

Thankfully no damage other than the plastic panel got popped out, gonna buy some new fasteners on the way home. The gore is pretty spectacular, left front wheel is covered in blood spray, and the underside and left side of the car are streaked with blood.
