As some of you know, I lost my brakes at Jackson on the first Q pass of the weekend due to the front battery falling back into the engine and the positive post burned through both brake lines at the master cylinder. Not a fun ride! Luckily ever since I witnessed Peter's wild ride in Orlando I sat down and made a plan as to what I would do should it happen to me. It worked thank God and I was able to avert tragedy. I would say to you, Make a plan for yourself just in case. Please don't be dumb and think it can't happen to you! Jim
