    Glad you got the brakes worked out!

    Well, it is my thread, so as far as the WOT, I read between 80-100 pages an hour, so I try to wait until a series has a dozen books before I start. Jean Aul, clan of the cave bear series was good, Dragons of Pern, Sword of Truth, Elves of Shanarra, Planet Earth Decalogy, all good series of books. Deployments= lots of reading.

    I like your choice in books.

    Have you read the Piers Anthony Xanth collection? His trilogy grew to 15 or 20 books before I stopped reading them.

    One of the greatest authors ever...I have the entire set on a book shelf. I have hundreds of books, I am starting the Shannarra series again.

    Update on the brakes, rear pads installed, everything is great! Drives and stops like a normal vehicle now.

    UBC Pads

    I'm in the process of replacing all brake pads and rotors front and rear. I'm using the UBC pads front and rear and Concept 1 drilled/slotted rotors. I'm gonna paint the hub centers yellow to match the calipers so I'm kinda excited. I can't wait to get it finished to see the difference. My proton has always performed well brake-wise but I think this will make a respectable improvement. Should be done in a week or so.
