Default fun road bad times

ok well as most of you in austin know today was a really nice day outso i thought why dont i go for a drive weill i went down 360 to 2222 up to 620 then turned around and came back now past the construction on 2222 i decided to gun it ya know, just have some fun there was hardly any other cars at all out today so i hit like 115 coming down this big ass hill and about 300 yrds in front of a car pulled out and there is a light there that turned ed so i hit the brakes all of a sudden my brake pedal hits the floor its still giving pressure to the brakes so neways i stoped about 3ft behind the other car, it was so scarey like i almost shit my self i had a turtle head poken out n everything, needless to say im getting my master cyclinder fixed soon i had a small leak wich i have patched up pretty good so i got normal brakes aslong as i dont have to slam on them and my days of going that fast are over unless its a nice smooth str8 road with out any lights and other cars... i knew i was either going to just barely stop n time or have to go around the car and run a light (wich i would have done due to the odds of maken it and not hittin any one versus knowin i will go into the back of another car) so ya thats the highlite of my week

You can get a new master cylinder pretty cheap at rockauto.com Not only do they have great prices, they are really fast at getting stuff out to you.

You also dont wannt go to long with using afro engineering on ur brakes. The last thing u need is for your brakes to fail again

k, sorry to hear that, but you shouldn't have been going that fast in the first place. You could have easily killed yourself, other drivers or innocent bystanders with your wreckless self. Also, making references to Austin Powers 2 > you.
