I can't argue with you there, but I've never had a problem with that on
my Midget, and I drive it in the rain quite a bit. In the trade off
between brakes that stay too cool to be effective in the dry and having
to be extra-cautious in the wet, I'll be extra-cautious in the wet. I
might feel differently if I lived in Seattle or somewhere else where
the rain/sun ratio was even worse than Ohio.
