Talking SHAR here: If you got full power (c2.4 secs after wheel-drag) you were going off the front one way or the other. If the brakes failed to release, it made no difference, you just got flat wheels. Average deck run was only in the region of 4 seconds, so not much time for faffing about.

I have no info on the Dave but I guess it is similar.

BZ M-B!
