Jon, Sorry I didn't return your call. I forgot about it (been an insane week) then lost the #, grr.
Room splitting is fine with me, however it works out. Doesn't matter much.
I may be going up there with 3 Jeffs. Jeff my brother, Jeff (440_4x4), and another Jeff from out of state who shall remain nameless. Then again, it may end up just being me - won't know till early/mid week.
See you there.
JR

Okay, I forgot I've been roped into coaching little league this year and there is a coaches meeting Saturday. I will do my best to get out of it (like this is my first year, HELLO?), but it may delay me Saturday or cancel the trip that day entirely. I'll know more later. Be there Sunday for sure at minimum. Switch out them pads, bleed them brakes, and take out the sub. Eeeee Haw. Best, SJ

I hope to get up there, but not sure I will have the cash to get out on the track, but I really want to. Would be nice to have some track time down as an NA, and then as a TT to compare the difference.

But you'll need a helmet, and be prepared to empty your car. Best, SJ

Okay, the meeting is mandatory for me Saturday morning @ 9a. With any luck at all, it won't last over 12 hours like most of these things do and I'll be on my way up there before lunchtime. (grumble, grumble) Sorry chaps. Cheers, SJ

Well, it looks like Sat. is shot for me, no way I can get up there on Sat. but I am planing on going Sunday for the day. OK, here is the EDIT.... *sigh* driving home from work, have the windows down, the radio up, enjoying the decent day. Come up to an intercetion, press the brake... WOOO! all the way to the floor and almost no presurre. Get the car home with out hitting anything, and check the break fluid level. It is low, looks like I have a leak.  If I cant find it, no RA for me. Any words of wisdom where to start the search?

Sometimes when cars sit for extented periods of time, the caliper piston seals and the rubber lines can become brittle. Then when a sudden movement or twisting under pressure cause cause them to split. If it happens to be one of the lines, I would def suggest getting braided replacements. Glad to hear you and the car are fine. Loss of brakes can be catastrophic.

On a side note, it looks like I'll be at RA on Sunday.
