Re: Corrado Brakes -- Physics Question: Are they pointless?



a few feet is astronomical to some people, broaden your horizions and 
you'll see, 2 feet means...

you can be full throttle for ~2 more feet
you can apply the brakes before the apex 2 feet later
you save an average of .02 seconds per corner
average auto-x course has 4-6 braking required turns (guestimating)
thats over a half second advantage just in the corners alone,
you'll get the trophy, you'll get the money, you'll get the chicks

so in conclusion 11" rotos will get you LAID*!

aint that worth it??

* this in no way gaurentees that you will get laid, its a generally 
assumption, not valid in some states, employees and family members 
of ATE and ferodo are ineligitable, also exclused drives with the 
last name of Meze and all rocco owners in San Diego..
