It took me long enough lol.

Anyways here she is.

Well, it looks like we'll be getting the wrath of Earl tomorrow. Its that time of year, and we are officially in Hurricane season. I'll be getting up in the :am heading to work, and then just see whats gonna happen. I'm thinking more than likely we'll be working a half a day. I love living on the water, but during 'Cane season its not so glamorous.

I think I'm just gonna ride this one out. I've done it before, and I don't think its gonna be too bad. I'm gonna try to get some pics.........only problem is the bulk of the storm won't move in until after midnight. Why does a storm always hit after dark?? I'll try to keep everyone updated.

So as I was going home from work and I hit the highway theres this big CLUNK from the rear end that jerks the whole truck, I go to hit my brakes..... NO brakes! :thumbsdown:
I pump the pedal up and I get pressure back, now I have brakes again.

As I get closer to home the same thing happens again.

I knew my right rear brake caliper was worn out (you could hear it rattling) so thats what I suspect was the culprit.

Pull off the caliper and I could see large chunks of my brake pads in the disks, so I pull it out and the pads crumple to pieces.

Heres a bit of the carnage.







My guess is the caliper was so shot it was sticking when it was warm, locking shut when it cooled then releasing when it got hot again. IDK

I got really lucky it wasn't something more serious.... sure scared the sh!t outta me going 65 down the highway in traffic with no brakes.

who is this and why do i have a pm from them saying the same thing on multiple forums? i don't use the same user name on all the forums, but i have the same pm. not sure what to think, anyone have any ideas?

Anyone played mx vs atv reflex? Its an awesome game, but no 2 stroke atvs on it only 2 stroke dirtbikes. Well I contacted them about putting a trx250r on the game as a downloadable feature. That way you could race against all the new 450's.

I just need you guys to click on the link and fill out the form and ask if they will put a trx250r as a downloadable ATV to use. U dont have to sign up to THQ's website or anything just use a valid email address.

I play it on the xbox360 but you can put another console if you like.

1st drop down select console
2nd select xbox 360
3rd select mx vs. atv reflex

Feel free to pass this along to other forums to help out.
