And killing modern ABS is precisely that.
Jeff (ITA77) absolutely does have a point that there's a fear factor that plays a role in reluctance to accept new technologies. If one were to ask my PERSONAL view, I'd agree with him that RR shocks aren't going to turn a loser into a winner. Nor will ABS turn a wanker into the Stig.
Eventually, it's not about IF these technologies will make it into IT - it's about when, and the timing DOES matter.

100% in agreement.
That's why all of the ABS equipment (other than the wheel speed sensors) is still present in my car.
