Yeah, CR said: the
first stop (of
all braking tests) was the shortest. It was never repeated, even the next day when they repeated the tests.
They said Car & Driver also saw "bizarre" variability in stopping distances. (That's not a word I'd expect them to use if they're just talking about brake fade, something they have plenty of experience with.)
