    I think we should have club t-shirts.

    "This quality, all-cotton T is available in 'instrument panel black' and sports the official ABS Club logo in glowing orange..."

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Mine has fluttered on and off for a couple years now and now that I have my new brake kit on, it just STAYS on. I guess it decided that since the brakes are in perfect condition now, ABS no longer has to pretend that it even did work and just gave up the ghost, heh. Not a fan of ABS anyways. When you know how to pilot a car, you don't need the car to correct you. Hands off computer! I'm behind the wheel!

    Hell, I grew up driving cars that never even heard of ABS. Rule of thumb was "pump the brakes". Ya know, that's all ABS is doing anyways.... it just takes YOU out of the equation, heh.

    I don't miss 'em.

    But yep, that light can go to hell. It's bad enough I have stared at my TPS light in my STi since the month after I bought it. I HATE tire pressure sensors too and am running without. If I have a low tire, I can see it and check regularly anyways. If I get a blowout on a highway, little that sensor would do for me then. So.... I need a computer (and TSA regulation!) to tell me MORE crap that I can do myself? *sigh*
