Don't remind me that I was supposed to go down there and couldn't

Yeah that's a good point. I think it's good to know HOW late and hard you can brake though, so you can do it if necessary.

Anyways I was just saying when you're not shifting around in the seat when you're about to turn in, you can move all your braking markers up even if you brake the same exact way.
