Master cylinder
stock discs and pads, under 6 months old at the time. I do not understand your comment however as I never stated that my braking performance was above average, its the same poorness as any stock zed breaks. A new master brake cylinder did not improve on my stopping distances. I can't see how it would unless someone makes a performance model? once the seals inside start leaking you will get air in the system and crappy brakes. Unless you are experiencing that I see no point in replacing it.

Master cylinder
I had to replace mine, did i notice a difference? yes, because mine let go and I lost my brakes on the way home from london :) Once replaced there was no difference in braking performance since before it broke down.

pc is noisey

Any one use Linux?
read the INSTALL and README files, i run linux on one or two machines ;) , I guess your first step would be getting a root shell open and going from there....... its a wonderful world once you get it going, but i still run XP on the desktop.

Zed drivers being stereotyped
I think zed drivers are one lot you can't sterotype, just look at any meet, all ages sizes and hairyness's o wait, we all work in IT, and know a great value sports car when we see one.

would you ???
FIA Rules & Regulations Technical Regulations Fuel Formula One cars run on petrol, the specification of which is not that far removed from that used in regular road cars. Indeed, the FIA regulations state that the rules are “intended to ensure the use of fuels which are predominantly composed of compounds normally found in commercial fuels and to prohibit the use of specific power-boosting chemical compounds.” All fuel must comply with strict requirements and prior to each race the teams must supply the FIA with two separate five-litre samples for analysis and approval. Additional samples can then be taken during the event to ensure that there is no discrepancy between the fuel being used and that previously supplied in the samples.

would you ???
Fuel additives that give power increases are prohibited, at least last time I read the rules they were.
