I was at a race track this weekend for the first time with my '97 Camaro Z28 (completely stock) and realized that my brakes need upgrading. In short, trying to pass a Porsche 911 at the end of a long straight before a tight 180-turn, going about 110 - 120 mph I lost almost all ...

I have a 1999 Honda Accord EX five speed. It started roaring a bit ago and everyone told me that I needed a new muffler. So I went to have that done, and they told me that there was nothing wrong with it. I took it to my mechanic and he said that maybe it was my tires. I got

So a few months back the starter in my '78 camaro died, and I replaced it with a reman one from pep boys (lifetime guarantee, so it seemed like a better deal than a Delco). The second starter lasted just under a month on a car that is only driven 2-3 days a week. The third
