yeah thats right the lines are all different, and so is the car i think.



i think the non abs cars dont have the spot for the pump to bolt too

would the abs sensor on the hubs fit on a non-abs car?

Its not a matter of inabilities of a driver its a matter of doing something with your car you cannot regularly do hence giving you an advantage. Everyone knows the one that can brake later and get on the gas sooner is going to be faster.



So while I am doing a textbook brake in a straight line the guy w/ the ABS is braking later knowing he can brake into the turn therefore he is going to enter the turn faster and have an advantage.



When you loose by a hundredth of a second like I have to a car with ABS you wish you had ABS.



I hope you dont watch F-1 because they have all kinds of technology to cover up the inabilities if their drivers.

the abs system will be a complete bitch to put in, IMHO, then again i drove since september with a blown master cylinder aka no brakes.
