WUSABIE ALL!
Just created an account for ROTORLUTION Racing. figured if we can have a myspace page, might as well have a ROTORLUTION name on here..... I have my own, Michelle has her own, so I am not sure how much we will be using it... but hey, we got one!

maybe... im always driving around. just got my project mu pads put on so i was out being a menace to society for about an hour or so.
i like both daytime and night time driving but every accident ive had in the canyons were all at night so i just dont feel comfortable pushing it anymore. just too many critters running around. and they dont always get out of the way
. also the road is colder. you dont get that feeling of being glued to the road even with the rear end loose.

ah crap, I forogt to give an update to my car! (thanks for reminding me Lesper)
-Dealership inspected it and fortunately there wasn't any real damage to the caliper or the rotor.
- They originally said the bolt must not have been tightened properly when the calipers were painted.
-Fortunately for me, the brakes had been inspected by them since so they went ahead and fixed it for free.
There is however, a 2nd theory: A forum member suggested that it could have been caused by paint getting into the threads when I painted them. The paint possibly might be to 'slick' so the bolt gradually came out. Not sure what I think of this since many many people here painted their calipers and I'm pretty sure I did a good job of masking... Who knows, just glad no one was hurt and my car got fixed.

Does any one have a set of jack stands I can borrow for about a week and a half?
I have 2, but I need 2 more for a project
