My season was allmost over before it began! I took the car out today for the first time in 3 months to test drive/ season the brake's, well i stopped at the parts store to return a tool, and after leaving the store just 2 mile's into my trip this damm honduh pulls right out in front of me (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rant.gif) It was everything the new pads had(xp11) and me turning into the same alley they were pullying out of not to hit this dumb.....!

I was soooooooo mad that all of the hard work, time, and money was allmost gone in a flash! And just 5 day's from the first event of the year!

Other than that, the car ran great with all the new stuff from Jason, Sam, GW, Carbotech, Summit, and so many more (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/2thumbs.gif) (oh yeah and all of you!)

Except for a fuse that pops everytime i hit the power locks (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Ok rant over!

Gotta luv new car drivers. When they get behind the wheel for the first time, a lot of them think they're hot s*** when in actuality, they ain't s***.

Had an Accord driver that started to follow me in SD like he was giving me a challenge and well, when I took a steep corner on an exit, and he tried to follow, they must've understeered and went off the road. Talk about imprudence.

I don't understand why some new car drivers would like to kill their car before its time. even if there is no accident, they're subjecting their engine to premature wear.

Not meant to be a "kill" story, just stating my observation of some of those newbie car drivers. Like any driver, the only ones I have respect for are those who have good tools, while not being tools themselves.
