I'd like to change the topic a little, to caliper seals and how long they 
last under racing conditions. I just came back from a weekends racing and 
rebuilt my calipers. The late TR4/early TR6 style calipers have one inner 
ring and a rubber boot type seal. In mine the boots were crispy, crumbling 
to the touch and one of the 4 inner rings had heat damage. I can only assume 
that the little rubber seal between the halfs is also heat damaged. I had 
spares ready so the job is done but I'm just a bit curious if everyone is 
frying these like I am. Mine were on there for nearly 4 years of racing.
