You guys are right locking brakes lead to trouble. THere is one thing though. On most cars the faster you go the harder it is to lock the brakes up, even harder to lock them up on a car with downforce. Because of this, it's good practice to set your braking force to lock up while you are at high speeds then back them off until they won't lock when you jam on them. DOing this insures that you are getting the maximum braking possible while racing. Of course you'll have to ease up on the pedal as you start to really slow down to avoid locking them up. You guys try that and watch your lap times take a dive as you get used to it.
