No. I got fed up one day at the speed and uselessness of the postings, so I started the 100th as a jab at the 's. The car needs work, but it looks okay for now. Brakes need some attention. Under high speed braking, it shudders pretty badly. At lower speeds, it's barely noticeable. I'm wondering if it's a warped rotor as I've never had one.

Haha. You were in an e-Line.

The DMV will make you wait no matter WHAT.


You finish dropping in the B20?

Yep, but we really jacked up the motor mounts and my axles are finished. Apparently not even Driveshaft Shop axles can hold up to the dumpage.

So I'll be racing it at Langley tonight.

That sounds more like material build-up on the rotors. If you get them turned the problem may go away.

But in the long run I'd be looking for a way to get rid of the Wilwoods altogether.
