GTRPSI & XKLABA, I understand exactly where your coming from, from your perspective it would seem as though why would I want to try and brake harder than what seems capable and this is exactly where the answer also lies. It's what seems capable.... But the fact is I know I can brake harder and with more accuracy than what the ABS can, when the rears may be just starting to lock up the fronts still have more in them. I have had this issue on a previous vehicle and by disabling the ABS it could drive harder in the corners, brake later and most importantly brake harder. As for visually inspecting the vehicle while under heavy braking, this hasn't been done as the motorkhana events I have ran it in there were no persons permitted past the start line and none to the sides for safety reasons. As for the brake balance I'm not sure what your mean (brake bias setup)? The pads are Bendix Ultimate pads, callipers are stock 4 & 2 pot that have had a full reco done. Also running factory discs at the moment. In the next 12 months I will hopefully upgrade to AP 6 pots on front and 4 pots on the rear with a set of DBA 3000's or similar.
