i dont drive my car hard often too many police etc id get done knowing my luck.

will get driven better soon as its gona be a track car :D

I use the gears to change down to junctions and stuff but if i got to stop i use the brakes, don't slow down in the gears for long

true but if your on a possibly icy piece of road and tap the brakes the car may slide

but changine down is less harsh and is controllabe

also if changing down fooks the gearbox none of my dads cars has needed a new box or clutch and hes been driving for donkeys years

Brakes are there for a reason tho.....

It's cheaper to change the brakes than rebuilding the gearbox :P

ive always used the gears to slow car down
way i was taught to drive only use brakes when nessary
its safer that way specially in this weather were having ice etc

If your old brakes are still like new, you need heavier boots:lol::lol:

astra 2.0 16v brakes fitted and working
