Yes, exactly... slightly increasing the vehicle speed (and therefore rotational speed) will have the same effect on rotational inertia as slightly increasing the diameter... I do hope that the Ford engineers designed the brakes to handle slowing down that Ranger from it's top speed (what is it, something like 75mph if it's going full throttle down hill with a tail wind?) without the rotors turning into the consistency of melted cheese...
