Brakes slow the car down, slam on them or press them hard enough, they lock up, rendering brake upgrades a waste of money

Many people do not understand this. I can lock my wheels in .2 seconds, what is slowing me down at that point? How sticky my tires are.

Oh brake ducting kit, that would be beneficial


Also, warm your pads and rotors up, don't let them cool and track it like a mad man
