    I should have the video of Sean's brake failure at pit-in -- going to go through it tonight and I'll get it posted up.

    What was the failure mechanism? Proctor's was the brake push rod coming off of the brake pedal if I remember correctly.

    I heard it was caliper bolt fell out. Don't know if it was front or rear. I have had issues with rear caliper bolts but have never seen a GM front caliper lose a bolt.

    Both of em.
    The 99-04 mustang and 98-02 camaros run the exact same caliper I believe. Small bolt holding the caliper to the pin, loctite is required for those. I also hit every single bolt on my car with torque seal to make sure nothing has moved and I check every fastener between race weekends.

    That is really similar looking to mine there. I guess he was okay?

    Holy crap. I once missed a bolt on my Z06, but the caliper swung into the rim and still worked so I finished my drive home with mere downshifting.
