Hey guys,run into a little problem.
The other night i was out in the car (the vtr) and was messing around with my cousin.......racng a little,sum hard braking,now ive done that b4 and never come along with this problem......i came to a point were i had to come to a stop quickly.....hit the brake and didnt stop,there was still pressure but just wasnt stopping which made me had to avoid my cousins car and go straight onto another road which was a blind bend and i coudlnt see the cars coming,luckily it was around midnight so only one car was coming but i avoided it *racing is bad in my defence* LOL anyway today we had the car up on a ramp to take both front wheels off and take the brakes and everything apart.at first i thoguht the pads were worn out......checked them this afternoon and all are perfectly good,nuthin wrong and plenty of miles left in them......
now comes my real question,WTF happened.we did take them apart and blew an absolute fuck load of brake dust out,i mean a lot.i came to the conclusion the brakes were wet and with me using them it all gettin hot with the brake dust aswell making the brakes not work at that point.was it the fact that they were bein put through sum hard braking that they just simply over heated (after it happened there was a burning smell and when i stopped there was a lot of heat coming from between the rims)
any info i would appreciate
please giv me your oppinions,i gotta say im nervous about gettin back in the car and it happening again,i todl my dad tog o out and slam on the brakes and he did and it stopped fine,so am i right thinkin it was a one off from the brakes bein used hard or sumthin else?
thanks in advance
