Using the brakes is front bias is it not, may not want to put any load the front, plus less foot work. I mean there are so many variables, I just prefer to be in control of the car. The clutch can be used for very light braking while shifting too, but the SRM will not really let you do that. Has there ever been a time where you dont want to drop right into the gear, but just ease into it to scrub off? Guess it is hard to explain?
