Pardon my stupid ISP or computer as it apparently decided to send this message
multiple times, while I was using another program on my computer...
My final point to this is... don't be out there driving insane (ie, speeding up
to a turn or stop) and figure out other ways to stop your car! You never know
when your car brakes will fail. I have had multiple roadster brakes partially
fail and even a VERY scary episode with a 2000 Buick Regal in 2002, when the
brakes failed. There never was a problem because I knew alternate means to
stop my car, no matter what I was driving. Do yourself a favor and learn
those means as well...
