August 2, 20159 yr comment_474959 Just as an aside, our cars were designed with dual independent braking systems from the start. So even with a failed brake line, the other side of the system should provide emergency braking.That's the only reason you see the brake failure stuff in movies and on TV shows- because they were staged. Now, you'll ask yourself, "How can they have a total brake failure, when there are two independent brake lines in automobiles built at the time?" (for more modern movies & TV shows, of course.)

August 2, 20159 yr comment_474960 Why don't you just travel within the speed limit, so you don't have to worry about computers, realays, or "killing lights?" I'm just trying to reach 4 digit speeds but yeah driving the Z is usually in cruise mode, not a real big fan of watching the carb drink fuel...
