Hi Murchman,

This is not about wheels but locking under braking in GPL.

I move the brake bias back to less than 55, usually 52-54.
This allows me to *almost* put the brake to the floor without
locking.  Just ease up on the brake after your speed is reduced
because the wheels will lock without the added weight transfer.

Check out my Murasama/Monza setup for an example of this.
See the sig at the bottom.

Oh yeah, I don't trail brake so If you do -- well all this information
can be thrown out the cockpit.

Jason.
