Run it like a Jake Brake- independent of the regular brakes. Truckers have learned how to Jake Brake safely so I don't see it as an insurmountable issue.

And... I didn't say it was racing either. Racers are on the edge of the performance envelope. I'd hope that outside of emergencies, street drivers aren't.
