Going into ABS?
#3
Okay, thanks. That's what I was wondering. The only time I've had it kick in is while bedding in pads or scuffing my tires. Even that was just to check out the car's limits. On track, I don't think it's ever been used.
What made me think about it was a vid of some british dude test driving a DTM car. He was saying how awesome it drove, being able to us ABS into some of the turns. That sounded odd to me, but I don't really know.

Depend on the track Chuckwalla seems to not say very clean, even during a session, or the surface isn't great, so I get into ABS a lot there. At Spring Mountain and Willow Springs, not so much. Stock, the car has a lot of rear bias. If the ABS ever fails, the rears lock up first. I experienced this when I lost an ABS sensor wire on track. Similar brake pressure resulted in rear lock up that did happen on previous lap, looked down and ABS light was on. So I think the ABS pump is working at least some of the time and we don't realize it.

OT: like others never hit it on track. Only a few times on road when it has been very icy on the VIII. Never on the X.
In terms of the comment above some "hardcore" old schoolers believe ABS "meddling" is detrimental. Maybe true for very elite professional drivers but I can't see this being true for most average HPDErs or even auto Xers. I'll keep my ABS thanks!
