But if you want to keep your head buried in the sand, be my guest. Like I said, I'll just point and laugh when you wreck because you didn't have the grip to get out of the way.

Are you aware that aerodynamic profile changes drastically during heavy braking? You get more frontal area and a much higher Cd due to angle of approach changing. You create a large section of increased wake, which helps to slow you down, even at minute amounts.

Also, as speed decreases, so does lift. If you want to decrease lift, why not just slow down?
