Bill,

Balance, if you mean 50/50, then you should only balance the braking
for the first moment of braking. As weight transfers to the front
you want to trasfer braking from the rear to the front. At the
hardest braking youe rear will be running free.

I can't remermber if I did a stoppie for your kids or not? I can't
remermber if the roads in Clearwater where to slick for that or
not?
