Everything is a 'fest these days, you've got your Oktoberfests, your
Chapterfests and your Pizzafests. How about a tech session 'fest? How
about a Brakefest? Okay, it's really just a tech session about brakes,
but I couldn't avoid putting 'fest on the end of it.

Ron Willis and Lee Jones have been working on BMWs for years, they
even race them in SCCA ITB competition. Well, they've recently opened
their own shop in Manassas Park, Manassas Motorwerkes, and have
offered to show us the ins-and-outs of brake maintenance and repair.
You'll find out how to change pads, flush your brake fluid and swap
rotors. They'll tell us how to recognize when rotors or pads need to
be replaced and how often you should bleed the system. This will be a
great session for the novice. If you're just getting started in
drivers schools and autocrosses, this will be a great way for you to
learn how to keep your braking system in tip-top shape.

In addition to refreshments and snacks, we'll be getting a look at
Ron and Lee's brand new full-service BMW shop, Manassas Motorwerkes.
