And not replacing that cracked rotor that you discovered on the fall cruise?? Redonk and dangerous.

- Chill out, I got a little overconfident, the corner surprised me, and the brakes didn't bite hard enough. The new suspension didn't help keep the back end in line, and I hadn't pushed the car to that extent on it in the few days I had it on before the cruise. I definitely know the limits now, though.
- So? I helped. I also wouldn't have been there at all (not that you would have minded any) if Mark hadn't been nice enough to make time for me.
- Nope, never. Doesn't mean I wouldn't do it myself if given the chance.

Rotor turned out to be a surface crack, it's pretty much gone now. That's not justification for not replacing it, but it is at the top of my list. Now that I've finally had decent hours for the past few pay periods I can afford to take care of it.

Speaking of implications... might want to watch your wording

No, you don't. However, if you look at where people were running, you had autox'ers and crazy people at the front, people with decent experience in the middle, and at the back, people who were just cruising. That said, I'm curious as to your use of the word "we" considering you were behind me until after I spun.
