so, let me get this straight, you want to know why your rear brakes are working normally? and refuse to believe any explanations of how they work normally? and still insist that something is wrong, because your rear rotors don't get as hot as the front rotors?

And you have the balls to insist that I don't understand what is going on? all based on your excessively scientific thermal data gathering technique of throwing snow on the rotors?





RARA,

Take a pill man. RE-read some posts. Your ego is all tangled up in your short hairs. Please show me WHERE I insisted that you don't know what is going on overall with braking systems?

Here's my key early statement that maybe you should re-read
"Thanks - I certainly realize that the fronts handle a majority of the braking (>70%) but that fact doesn't mean a case can't arise where the backs are still far under-biased from where they should be."

But you can tell somehow that my braking system is normal and know there is NEVER a case where a vehicle has far under biased rear brakes. Uhhh ........

I basically said that "thanks for the interesting posts" but they don't pertain to my specific thread starting problem that occurs FAR UNDER threshold (on the limit of lockup) braking.

Your posts and several others were all about weight transfer and such that is important at high braking levels, but not a significant factor at low braking levels that I still experience my braking issue at. Why isn't that clear?

I said straight up that I didn't have an IR temp gauge. Please take a poll of how many CEG'ers do. But I do own a few 4 wheel disk brake vehicles and NONE of them have the observable massive temp difference from front to back that I have on my CSVT. YES - I said all of this earlier.

But now I am a dumba$$ because "my brakes are working correctly" and I don't know it. Well then please tell me why other 4 wheel disk vehicles I've checked are much closer to balanced on temp? They must not be the normal ones?

OK - let's hear your professional braking engineer explanation of that?

And laugh all you want but an audible sizzle at least tells you the the temp is above a key level. Whereas I know the back was only 110-120 deg F max. This is about a major rear braking deficiency, not the fine tune situation you led the thread to.

When fine tuning - of course use the right tools. When searching initially for a major imbalance, more crude tools are still informative. Sorry for not first showing up to the forums with my IR and wireless type K thermocouple 18 bit A/D data sampled at 150 Hz during laps at Waterford with 18 blindly picked test drivers. This was an initial get ideas thread and you turn it into an ego blabbing insult fest.

Being an engineer - you should know better.
