Chris, the other thing to think of is the location of the reservoir relative
to the calipers. Most likely the calipers are higher than the reservoir
requiring a residual pressure valve, kinda like a check valve to keep a certain
amount of pressure on the system at all times.

So my understanding is that if you need to pump the brakes to get good
stopping power, the first thing to check is bleeding the system. If
that doesn't help, is there anything else I should be looking into, or
just keep trying to perfect my bleeding technique?
The sypmtoms are that on the first pump, you slow down a little, but
not a whole lot, but on the second pump, you stop like nobody's
business (at least compared to a street car).
I've tried bleeding twice now, but no change...
Thanks for any tips!
