How To Brake?

[Festina Lente]

Sprint racing you can beat the crap out of the car,

^
Endurance racing you have to be smooth, and preserve the car.

You'd better believe the latter are very smooth with their "inputs", otherwise the race is over early.

I think you need a session or two with Hurley versus some of the curb hoppers.

This is a great discussion. I've always been taught that smoother is faster. An illuminating place to learn about braking and suspension response is on a motorcycle.
