I chose blue in back because I wanted as much rear brake as I could get.

I think I locked the rear brake first before spinning on Saturday, but that was off camber plus engine braking and trailbraking when I shouldn't have. It's awfully close to balanced with the available tire grip. Usually the front locks up first.

I don't think that much rear bias is a good setup on the street, but with equal ceramic compounds it will go back to front first, which is good for a panic stop. No abs here.


Yea, you always should have the fronts lock first. I "bench set" the dual m/c cars with front bias before they leave the shop.

Rear bias is makes the car very hard to control under braking.
