Have you ever used disc brakes. or are you being a blow hard?
Hmm, I've never had a problem stopping under ANY condition in over 50 years of use. Don't know what your stopping problem might have been. How well do hand operated brakes work when your hand has something in it or is otherwise occupied such as giving a hand signal or drinking/eating?

I haven't tried super charging on my family auto either; guess only a blowhard would question the practicality/usefulness of applying expensive racing technology to everyday commuter applications.
