And no one has yet mentioned the situation when braking during a
corner.... There are some lateral forces involved there. Would that make a
difference? I'm not about to try it to find out! Imagine a hard left corner
with a lateral g load of about 1.5 G... Now imagine slamming on brakes on
just the front wheels....
Cheers!!
