Post I love...braking!

ever since i got the new brakes on (all factory oem), i've been hooked on making hard stops. get a nice run and see how well i can panic stop without locking them up. dang, it's funner than acceleration! i try to be careful, and not do it around traffic, peds, or cops. sometimes i scare other drivers with the screetch or smoke. they sit there, wide-eyed and frozen. i think i'm gonna get a ticket soon.

anyone else do this?

nope, but I'm moving to the S4 stuff (from an '89 951) next weekend, so I'm sure I'll be sporting forehead bruises soon...

I do limit braking all the time - at the track. It's not as easy to do as it sounds, is it?
