      I have been up since 4:30am.

      Had a 1st gen RX-7 with a draw through turbo set up and was fucking around late on a weekday night and cooked the brakes off of it. Approaching a stop sign at 130mph with a firm brake pedal but no brakes scared the crap out of me. I had Wilwood stuff on the car within a month.

          Ninja edit before you posted.

          They fade if you get them hot enough and have a pad that isn't up to the task.

            I set the fastest lap of the day at a race with the clutch and brake pedal laying on the floor (they share the same fluid on that car) the whole time. I had to use the ebrake to bring the car in the paddock.

            You just suck.

                I have no idea what you are talking about. 1st gen RX-7s and all other RX-7s have a separate reservoir for the clutch master cylinder.

                  That's because you are stupid.

                        He quoted my post where I referenced an RX-7 and said "that car".

                            I'm starting to think you live in some alternate reality where you really believe yourself.

                                You do know that I worked at a local RX-7 shop for years don't you?
