Finally got my brakes done. Took it over to Tireman because they've done so much for us in the past and I decided to let them play with the car. 
Real reason: They've been on there for 10 years (pads too); and I didn't know what was rusted together and what wasn't. They had the tooling and facilities (club shop was closed up for a big tourney..) so I said f'k it. Took it apart and obviously the rotors were shot. However my pads were getting chewed to hell but were the originals and still had half life left on 'em even while being eaten alive. 660 later (no labor charges on my invoice) I've got Bendix and Wagners. Now all I gotta do is get the front end realigned a bit since it looks like it never got done all the way after it was hit on that left side.

Making my way down and either crashing at the house if I drink too much or hauling back that night for no other reason than just to drive at night..
Full of caffeine.
In a Trans Am.
God help me.
...hopefully some more people from the NW will come down
