I can remember one time about 15 years ago there was a late 70's 400 Trans Am I was racing at about 110 we were pretty much neck and neck until a light turned yellow about a 1/2 mile down the road. I remember stepping on the brakes and nothing really happened! I was literally standing on the brake and downshifting at 80 MPH. I finally got it shut down in the middle of the intersection right before a car came through. A big billowing cloud of smoke came drifting across the car of burning brake pads. That is when I realized it was time to replace the drums with some front discs.
Much later after replacing my muncie with a TKO I got a wild hair up my toosh and hit about 130 MPH. After being there for about 3 seconds I started thinking of who rebuilt this thing (yours truly) and how old the tires were (about 15 years old) That sufficiently freaked me out and I promptly slowed her down. Handled surprisingly well though....
