Front-Rear-Side...BITE is always a good thing! And, of course (no pun), Pedders Bites Best!

Number 3, in an adavanced driving course I took many moons' ago, I was instructed to achieve the shortest straightest panic stops (ABS or otherwise), ALWAYS put your vehicle in Neutral...even in an Automatic...as it frees up drivetrain inertia. Again...PANIC stops.

Some/most of you may recall the days of RWD and fast-idle carbureted engines, and may recall seeing front wheels "clamped" with the brakes on FULL...and the REAR WHEELS continuing to move the car forward, sliding through icy intersections 'n such...

Comments?

SEMA was what 3 months ago? I have had a number of Builders SEMA requests already and just got a SEMA call from an OEM. Looks like we are starting early

By the way some of them are acting you would think this is the first time this has EVER happened or something......

Some people just don't get it.
