Not a racer, not a daily driver, I use DOT 5 simply to save my paint, has never failed to stop my car when I step on the pedal.
Have a great weekend,

I am sure William Pugh wants everyone to know that he relies on rumor and old mechanics tales for his information.  He never actually researches or relies on facts.

Do we really need snippy posts like this? Everyone is entitled to an opinion without having to endure this.
