ok look, today i was going like 35-45 down a street right and than i thought about abs and if it really works, so i slammed on the breaks, kept the foot there and the wheels locked and made a skidding noise and it smelled like burned rubber, i dont know if this is abs or not, really never experienced it, is there something wrong wiht my abs?
-------------------- Is this good enuff 4 ya? :D

Not sure about ABS being slower. It's banned from every form of competitve racing I know because it's so damn effective.
Yes, proper race drivers dislike it because it removes an element of control, but there's no doubting it works. I wouldn't be without it, and only pull the fuse in the snow. -------------------- JDM ST205

Race drivers dislike it and I think another reason it's banned is if you're a professional class racer you should know how to slow down your car just as fast as an ABS system. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
