Didn't think a Porsche could do that--what, STOP quick? They have been using multi piston calipers on their cars since mid 85' made by BREMBO. They test their brakes by driving at 110 then locking up the brakes 100 times to measure fade. Having driven them for years----I would tend to watch my rear view mirror for tailgaters knowing full well that I would stop much quicker then they would. Old trucks no matter how good our brakes work are no match for new technology. Sorry to see your loss but perhaps the lesson learned may help your next ride. Just give the guy in front plenty of room from our 35 year old rolling tanks!!
