emergency braking

Just a thought, but do any of you see backwheel emergency brakes as a viable option for quick turns?

I was thinking that with some weight shifting, one might be able to turn/drift faster, on the regolith.

I'm not sure, but would it act like we think it might since the trailer (how ever much it weighs) is behind the robot?

Re: emergency braking

It very well might work - especially if your drivers practice using the trailer in their turns - during testing we found it is not very hard at all to cause it to "break free" from the floor
