Chu did you use the the v5 patch or the v5.10? I know the v5 had some bugs.

Hey man. I used the one from this link.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ec...-knockcel.html

Doesn't show a version, so I'm guessing its one of the first out. V5.10 doesn't seems as simple to do.

I almost forgot to tell you guys my story after I left TGI Friday last Saturday. I live in Reading, so I took 100N from Exton. I left a little after 5pm so it was already dark. I was about 10 minutes into the drive going about 50mph.

I go through one of the wooded sections and at the tip of my headlights I see about 6 deer standing directly in front of me on the road. I jammed on my breaks like never before as they were covering the road...I had no where to go even if I wanted to. The ABS clicked a couple times and I stopped about a foot short of them, and then once stopped they scurry off right in front of my car. Needless to say I would of hit about 3 of them if I wouldn't of stopped in time.

Besides being lucky to see them just in time, I don't think there are many other cars that would of been able to stop in time. In fact, I think I may of hit the deer even if I was in my old Evo VIII. I did have upgraded Hawk pads on my VIII, but they were worn a good bit as well.

But ever since I got the X, I've always thought the brakes felt "big". And after this encounter where I really tested them, I do believe they are an upgrade.

tim. just daily driving the X it does feel heavy under normal braking but if you really do stomp on them they just bite hard at one point. the feeling of stopping like that is almost as good as accelerating quickly.

Tim, what you should have done after stopping was call Jeff. Have him take care of those deers and you wont have to break like that again!

That looked like a good meet, wish i could have been there. Lets have a big one in late march, I think the weather should be good by then.

Anyone know who the red, black, and blue evo x's are on the last pic of page 83. That last pic doesnt look like the one from the KOP meet from saturday.

You're right Nick, that last pick is not from the KOP meet this past Saturday. I believe that's the Baer Mountain run held a few months ago. Petey took the pic, so he should be able to give you the names. The white X looks sick!

Actually, I was so close to them by the time I stopped, my headlights only shined on their bodies, so I couldn't even see their heads!! I was close!

But yes, thank goodness for Brembos.
