Having watched the vid, now I know a tuned R34 can make mincemeat of Honda's finest

But a tuned Escort can make mincemeat of an R34, your point is ??

But for a comprehensive description of the type's and years available.

To make sure there's heat in the brake. Coming up to a fast bend braking hard with a brake that hasn't been used for 10-20secs which is cold isn't always good.

??? Surely not! Yes, brakes do initially need to be warmed up, but fade is the usual problem, never cold stuff! It sounds fesable, but i'd be suprised if that was the case!

I only watched it once!!Maybe a slight touch on the brakes to keep the rear in line with the front!!As you take a corner!!It can help to keep the rear in control!!But not sure!!

Definately not that. Left foot braking is used for mid corner line adjustment, not pre corner setup. I wonder if its something from single seaters or habit from driving a race car??
