Hi Everyone
Hope all is going well!
I had some free time this weekend and thought I would drain and replace the 
brake fluid on the roadster. As this is the first time
for me on the roadster, I was wondering if there is anything special I should 
know. Any tricks, tips, etc. Normally dealing with
brakes freaks me out because that is usually the last defense between you and 
the person in front of you. Any screw up and you are
suddenly in their trunk! But last month I put steel-braided brake lines on my 
motorcycle and everything is cool (so far!) so I
figured it was time to mess around with the roadster.
I know this is a pretty general request but as I previously mentioned, this is 
my first time and am unsure what to expect. I am
guessing it is pretty straight forward but just thought I would cover my bases 
regarding any special tricks that may not be
mentioned in any of the manuals.

You never know, that might be me behind you next time you suddenly slam on your 
brakes trying to avoid that squirrel in the middle
of the road<g>

Thanks and have a great week,

BTW I just wanted to offer a blanket "Big Ol' Thank You" to everyone on the 
list. I may not contribute much but I have learned a
great deal being on the sidelines and would like to think that my car is now in 
better shape because of this list.
