There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Perhaps if your caliper is binding sufficiently to get the rotor hot enough to warp, just jacking up each side and spinning the corresponding wheel while applying and releasing the brakes might show if the caliper is binding or not releasing. It would have to be a reasonable amount of friction from either the caliper binding or the rotor or hub running out of true to cause enough heat to be able to measure it after a short ride. I think something must be out of true or binding significantly in order to generate enough heat to warp the rotor(s) that quickly?
