base setup = front wheels loose traction first = abs kicks in on the fronts first.
how to make abs activate front and rear at the same time?
- increase front traction = wider tires = more grip = more stop before abs kicks in.
- increase rear clamping force = grabbier pads/taller rotors/bigger calipers/change the rear porportioning valve.
i think that things that detract from the performance of the car should not be considered: less front clamping force (ie, smaller front pads) less rear traction (narrower rear tires). further, folks that say "don't mess with brake bias" don't realise they are already doing it by changing tire width.
i guess the question that i'm asking is: on the boxster, what would be the effect of increasing rear braking? i would *think* that:
- less heat into the front tires because they are not working as hard to stop the car
- less dive on braking so flatter corner entry
- more pronounced rotation when trail braking
i am not asking to address any particular issue i am seeing at the track, i'm just curious.
