Well, I say it all the time cuz it's true, people use brakes very differently. Surprisingly differently! Still I don't get why one driver should get front lockup first and another get rear lockup in the same car... I have the same puzzlement over the S2000, sources said the car would lock rears first without ABS, but after I lost my ABS I *always* had fronts to lock first, over a very wide range of conditions and tires and (always square) brake pads, at the track and on the street. Hmm....
