Yoccos is another local place that is supposed to have good food. Ate there once many years ago... it was aight.

Just a little warning careful with what you eat and how much before karting.

Morning bishes.

I pass Yuccos on my way up there. Never stopped in before, but always say I'm gonna one day.

Are you trying to tell me eating chili cheese dogs would be a bad idea before karting? What if I wait 15 minutes like my mom always told me?

They were just 'meh' when I went there a long time ago. I'm not a big hot dog fan, though.

You can eat whatever you want, im just sayin, make sure you're behind me so I don't get sprayed with chunks.

This is great- my friend who i sold my honda accord rear ended someone- and he is blaming the brakes.

1- i sold it as is.
2 - i offered to "fix it" but after driving it myself, have Andy drive it, and the CEO of YBRD, they all agreed nothing was wrong with the brakes.

The CEO of YBRD has the same car so he has a good reference point.

this should be fun.

about the brakes... how long did he have the car before he rear ended someone?
Brakes are pretty black and white IMO. Either they WORK and the car stops or they don't.

he's "owned" the car for about a month. He was saying they weren't stopping fast enough.
Generally I know Honda's stock brakes don't just "grab" immediately, unless you buy some more aggressive pads.
I've owned it for 5 years, and never rear ended someone with it

OK so now he is telling me people heard his tires screech to a stop.

this was last night when it was RAINING and the ground was wet. I am now 100% sure this can't be a brake problem if the tires screeched from the brakes locking up.

To me it just sounds like he is trying to point the blame elsewhere.

rear ending someone is almost ALWAYS the fault of the car doing the rear ending in the eyes of an insurance company. You need to maintain a safe following distance at all times. Having the tires lock up in the rain means only a couple things:

He panic braked and locked them up, sliding into the car in front
His tires are blad and couldn't get traction on the wet ground when brakes were applied.

Did the car have ABS? Tires shouldn't be locking up with ABS... Either way the brakes were techincally 'working' if the tires were screeching. how well they worked is another question all together, but so is how was the guy driving and could the accident have been avoided.

Were the police called to the accident scene? Was there a police report filed?

Tell him to learn to drive and adjust braking distances for road conditions. Kick him in the nutz for being a douche and blaming you. End of story.
