I do - if I roll through the stop sign 0.1 miles from the end of my driveway. 25 miles to the interstate with intersection at the top of the hill. Shift down to 3rd to turn onto the onramp. 120 miles later is the big city. > and due to the > zero-clearance design of disc brakes, once pads are over their > initial warmup it would take many dozens of miles in temps too > cold to be safely running 70 for them to cool down enough to > be an issue. Does that mean you don't ever drive 300 miles on an Interstate highway without stopping? I do. And I _don't_ want brakes that change performance significantly with temperature while driving on public roads. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
