Mike Skeen at the wheel, those two Stangs are making some grits under the hood.

Actually, I would say that it was the result of better threshold braking by Mike given equal braking capabilities between the two cars.
As a driver, you want to use your brakes to the threshold of lock-up and not activate ABS (which will result in longer, not a shorter, braking distance). Once you've activated ABS, all you can do is stay on the brakes until the car slows down to the point where you re-gain control and by lifting off the brakes. |
