Let me tell you a story;

In about '74 I was speeding north of Casper, Wyoming (say 145) in my 2.5 914-6. I came over a rise and, lo there was one of the two Wyoming State Troopers about 3/4 mile ahead. Yes, I think there were only two on duty in the state at any one time. Of course I hit the brakes and was down to 70ish in a flash. As I puttsed along, he pulled out and turned on his lights. I dutifully pulled up behind his parked State car and prepared myself for "The Big One."
Well, after presenting my credentials, the officer asked me did I know why he stopped me. Of course I sheeplishly said "Was I going too fast?"
He sais "Well, I have never seen a car stop so well." We proceeded to inspect the still hot 'S' brakes. I then was admonished to "be careful" and went on my way.

A true story!

Best,
Grady
