Message	that here in WA when it rains, I feel the water runs along side the brake cooling guide, as well as from the road and wets the rotor so when the brakes are applied, you get that fade feel that your car is just moving forward until the rotor heats up. Fortunately I don't DD my Z any longer so I'm fine. "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle" ~ Plato "You DUMB ASS MOTHERF*CKER, don't you f*cking now how to read! Don't you see the little f*cking oil sign on the f*cking engine. Are you some kind of shit chugging f*cktard?
