Last weekend was really rainy around here and I was able to feel the
no-brake effect described here. It didn't seem to last more than 2-3
tenths of a second and after that it worked normally.  I thought maybe
it's more noticeable since the Miata has 4 disks. All other cars I've
driven have had rear drums so maybe they "covered" the fraction of a
second while the disks dried. Whatever, it didn't seem a big deal.

What I did find somewhat annoying, maybe even downright scary, was the
lack of illumination from the lights!  I read here some time ago that
some of you have replaced the stock bulbs with higher powered ones.
Where can such bulbs be bought?

BTW, there was a Miata vs. DelSol comparison on the latest R&T (or was
it C&D? dunno).
