How long would it take a non-mechanically inclined guy to swap out front rotors himself? Are there any dangers to doing it yourself if you are going to a road course event, or is it a pretty straight forward in and out job? I have never changed brakes on a car before.

Manny,
To be honest, your inquiry scares me. I agree with Frank that it takes the proper tools, torque specs, and mechanical experience to do the
proper brake job. I would further say that even something as seemingly easy as changing pads, rotors and bleeding the fluid can have serious consequences if not done correctly. Dangers? Yes, a lot of potential dangers. Keep in mind that brakes are a major safety component. No offense, but if someones not mechanically inclined and has never changed brakes before then I would have to say no to doing it themself. Leave it to a brake expert to do the brakes, or at least have one be there alongside every step of the process. Alright, I'm finished with my disclaimer.
