Now... I was looking and didn't see the "Formula Red with Black Trim" option... Was I not looking in the right place?

There's this Forum called FChat.

I'm serious. Do exhaust flames damage the back of the car any?

Bill's looked like a pretty quick pop, but my racebike would hold a steady flame sometimes when I got off the throttle...

Dan mentioned something about Diablo's cooking their bumpers from flames out the exhaust. I'd really hate to do the same, but I also really don't want Cat/Conv's either...

Jason, any issues after this weekend's Fire-breathing might asian pornstar mouse?

Mark, the only issue I have is that their fireballs and not continuous flames. I want my steak to be done when I get to the destination. No issues with the clam.

After filling up at BP, I've noticed my "check engine" light come on when I REALLY on it. Usually happens if I'm changing altitude. Might be related. Not sure. My oil level is spot-on and I'm clockwork on the maintence. I'm going to have the dealer check it out when the car's in for service next month. I'm going to be avoiding BP in the future, though, that's for sure.

BP sucks. I've had the same issue. I don't know what they put in their gas.

Sigh...

Even a fire breathing Ferrari can't keep you guys out of the gutter. And that's without the help of tazer boy.

We got nothing but love Bill!

So, the lotus needs to bleed about once a month... Huh. What happens if it doesn't? How long till you begin to worry?

I bleed mine before and after track. For street driving, I say I'd bleed it every oil change/3k miles.

No need to bleed! You all are like some 1800s blood letters up there in Indiana.
Tape the area around the calipers to the best of your ability. Spray down with some coats. Once cured drive for a little bit and your pads will take the paint right off with some moderate braking. The paint will also come right off the rotors with some braking.

No pun intended but that method is not my method of choice. I'd like to remove the whole damn thing. Brush it with brake cleaner until I can see my nose hairs from the reflection. Then, I paint the front, back, crevaces. Then, when I put the calipers back, I'd bleed the brakes since it's a good opportunity to do it. That's just my own preference. No short cuts.

Jeff...we need to have a brake bleeding session. Our cars have great brakes but require frequent bleeding if you go to the track.

They are particularly fast with their penmanship due to all the typing on their keyboard instead of driving.

That's a challenge to the Fcar owners out there.

I'm glad you used Fcar owners instead of drivers. Cool!
