Try that again, but next time properly format your post.

Raced SCCA for five years and also taken offensive/defensive driving
courses as part of the requirements for where my job sends me.

As for bell mouthed, that's an uneven (sloped) wear pattern on drums.

Step away from the glue.

It's been known to go from -40f to +40f in a day and back again --
based on chinook winds, so massive thaw/freeze cycles, and
still never ever had a problem on any well maintained vehicle.

I feel nothing but pitty for you.I am also surprised that you can
only use bad language on this news group.
I guess you only stay home on Sunday's.
As a technician,I can not use improper terms.(terms used for
diagnostics).
Are you a auto tech?Or a shade tree mechanic on the week ends?
I am glad you do not do repairs in my city.
Good luck in your adventures.
