Yep. This is another reason I'll probably only take the 8 instead of the 5 letter. I've only driven the car 200+ miles or so since owning it and I'm not willing to ruin anybodys fun if the car should have a mishap!

I'm putting all new brake fluid in the 8 and flushing the coolant system before we make the trek down. My tires are good (less than 8k on them) NITTO 555Rs

Good and sticky...

I love me my Wal-Mart specials.

All good though, I don't drive aggresively. I make sure that I'm at a low enough speed/brake early enough so if my brakes fail I can still get around the corner just fine. I realize my car is 22 years old (see strut thread) and things could fail at any time, hopefully others will realize the same things. I still go around the turns quickly so I still have all the fun I want. Braking is boring, going around turns is fun.
