Ok well I did a joi "skid" at the work party on Wednesday and I clamped my rear brake line off but then when I came back from the skid I had fuck all front brakes? Is this because the front brakes on a gemini are up to shit or what? A week before this my car spun out so I'm starting to think maybe my rear brakes are doing more like 70% of the work? Anyone else had this problem?

where you static or not? you prob find that the shoes on the rear will need adjusting becuase they still rub on the drum while doing burnoputs try that josh
