Good one Dave, yes, they drive along side us,,,,.

In the seventies i was working for a team that ran F5000 open wheeler's, an issue emerged with rotors cracking, they were cracking in line with the pads after the car had cooled down for a while after just coming in from a round,,, the fix was to rock the car back and forth a little till the pads and discs had dropped temp somewhat. Just with a foot on the tyre and a couple of inches rock was enough to stop the pads sticking, it was thought to be just a combination of parts issue.

I see this stuff all too often at my shop. It’s shocking really how bad people let stuff get.
