I doubt weight distribution has much to do with it.  My 2000 Audi S4 has huge brakes with an equally huge booster and can really bring the car down to a quick stop.  Unfortunately, the setup is so big, it is almost uncontrollable for regular light braking (10% braking) and therefore I have to increase my following distances do to the “touchiness” of the brakes.  The new S4’s have a dual-stage booster to help resolve the problem, but Road and Track still complained about the touchiness of the brakes when they tested the car.


I’d take the linear and controllable NSX brakes over the S4 brakes any day (except that day I need the 5ft. less stopping distance). ;)
