OOPS! Testing big brake kit at 150mph led to a little damage! It took 15 months to find a suitable replacement. The front right wheel was also broken. Total bill = $3500! Update: Apparently this crash also destroyed the front right wheel hub assembly and cracked the racing brake rotor. This issue didn't show up until the Houston Supra event in March 07. Add a few more dollars to the bill!
