    Anyone want to do my brakes?

    Hands are ripped to shreds!

    When removing the dash.... it is DAMN sharp!

    WEAR GLOVES!!!!

    I sliced open my whole finger print area on my right thumb and my left thumb is cut pretty bad too.....

    Ugh.... typically I cut my hands up when working on the bird.... but this time was the worst!

    Sometimes I wear my "mechanic's" gloves.....sometimes I just need that "no glove" feeling for removing stuff.... does that make sense?


    So..... it's 9:17 AM.....I'm frigin beat.... hands in pieces....and time to switch brake lines etc

    Anyone want to come over and do it for me? [img]graemlins/wavey.gif[/img]

            I don't feel like researching other posts to find out, but I assume that front brakes would be more important/useful.

                d00d get a carbon fiber hood!!!! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

                but seriously, if you removed all your body panels, would you gain any time or would wind resistance slow you down?

                  James, ever make it to e-town tonight?

                  You gotta find someone up near you to replace your brake stuff. I thought westwood was right over the bridge from philly...WOW, I was wrong!

                    Remove the rears and hit the fronts too hard, and your back end is coming around...
