I always overbrake! In the rain i see some brakes i brake too early and too hard cuz i get scared. today i was racing around with ha WRX and impreza doing about 85 and then i have to brake and i braked too hard too early and went skidding towards the car and i was like AHHH! if i could just learn to brake calmly i wouldnt freak out! :-(
