Want to shoot for Wednesday night? If that's cool with you, I can shoot over there after work. (I get out at 5). Do you need me to bring the caliper piston tool? If so I will pick it up from Autozone tomorrow night.
Disregard. Miscommunication means I got jerked around yet again. Sonofabitch.
I used to work at the zone, I know all about the tool rentals
Best service ever for specialty tools people don't feel like buying.You'd better believe it!
I kinda wanted to go into the city but I ended up working all day.
If you don't get to it before the cleaning meet I can help you with the brakes. We'll have them done in 30 min or so, depending how hard stuff is to get out
And yeah, I didn't read them as the rear brakes...rears you do have to twist them, however that tool is $5 at autozone, or you can do what I do and stick the end of a lug wrench in there and turn it

I've watched the race at or near the finish for the last few years and it gets a little redundant; however it is rather inspiring to watch some people finish. You can tell they are running on complete will power and I love when runners pass by one of their "fan" clubs and the crowd goes nuts. I keep telling myself I'm gonna have to try to go for it one of these years.
Not that one at least. I know now what the worst case scenarios are in more detail now. Unfortunately I found out the hard way. Now I'm going to throw some offers out to see if anyone bites.
Sweet! With any luck, I won't have the Protege there. Hahaha.

Yeah, I think I'm going to upgrade to Motul. I'm not racing until August, so I've got plenty of time to get all this s*** done. I'm going to upgrade my brake lines to stainless as well, so I think I'll wait until that is done before I swap out the brake fluid. Thanks for the heads up though!
Motul RBF600 is a nice fluid, but pretty pricey (though worth the extra little protection, if you want to be absolutely sure). A great alternative is ATE SuperBlue or Typ200, about half the price.
Stainless steel lines are good. Make sure you have nice pads on there as well. Where are you going to the track?

Thanks for the suggestions on the brake fluid. I'll have to check those out.
I am going to be racing at NHMS with the COM circuit in August. I have 2 other friends (that have Mazdaspeed3's that track there) and they have been trying to get me to race for over a year now. Figured it was time to give in and see what all the fun is like!
EDIT: I was just looking at those two alternatives you showed me for brake fluid, and they both look pretty much the same. Is there a benefit to one over the other?
