Just a heads up to any Canadian that might want to check their brake on their ooooooooold car. Braking on ice is an easy diagnostic This post has been edited by Rayme: Jan 1, 2007 - 7:39 PM -------------------- ![]() -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |

all cars are going to be heavily biased towards the front. all the weight of the car shifts towards the front when braking.
If they weren't biased towards the front the rear end would always lock up.... try using your e-brake to stop.... doesn't take much to make the rear lock. This post has been edited by wind: Jan 2, 2007 - 2:37 PM |
