I have to say it is even worse with the smaller 'standard' TD disk on the back.

It is exceptionally obvious that almost all the stopping is done by the front, and because the front heavy bias it does make the squirming under exceptionally heavy breaking a little more obvious as a result.

on the plus side you dont need to really weigh the anchor quite as often when you have stopping like this, as mine are certainly good enough to catch a dozy following driver out and result in a nasty shunt - so I am a lot more careful now about hard stops than i was before lol

I have spoken with Matt a number of times about balancing the rear, but he like most of us, is not aware of anything that has a 'better' time with the handbrake side of things or we can get our hands on without spending silly money.... something I have been keeping my eye on but not really looking for as a result.
