As usual, Bob gives good advice. I am reminded of a reported conversation
between Commandante Ettore Bugatti and a gushing female. She was complaining
about how difficult it was to operate the very large, but all mechanical
braking system. He is said to have replied:

“Madam! I build my cars to GO not to STOP!”

So, Bob's experience in mind, the solution is save your brake rotors and help
save the endangered slow Cobra's, pass him on the straight! {9->
