shaking down a friends car at carlsbad raceway, car was a fresh frame-off resto race/street car, ripped off
a 11.06..pushed the brake pedal, rock hard, didn't move one i-otta, pushed again then wham brake's locked up and got it slowed down....when the resto was down they converted from power brakes to
manual brakes and the plunger rod was to short, on accel it came out of the master cylinder cup and fell
onto the little lip on the master cylinder on the second brake pump it popped back into the cup...coulda
fell all the way out than i would'nt be typing this.
