question... why were we all smelling our brake pads?

I'm not sure what drove me to smell them, I just did

EDIT: I think the main thing is I wasn't sexually aroused by this so it's all good.

Wrong. Not all brake pads are organic...

No some have carbon and other exotics in them, but i think youll find that they the vast majority have an organic substrate because that is what makes the smell, so lets cut the pedant act as we dont all drive cars with carbon ceramic brakes so it fits the 99.99% majority of this forum. :rolleyes:
