understandable.
I was referring to the fact that even when you hit the brakes, the engine>tranny>t-case>driveshafts>axles>tires are still trying to turn which can hinder actually braking.
in our driving schools up here we are taught to slip into N whenever we hit the brakes hard and NEED to stop.
Having personally tried, been taught, and shown others that it works, I know you can stop sooner, (and straighter) when your in N.
Having said that, like you said if your brakes lock up, having a bit of torque on them can keep that from happening. But more often than not my rear drums never locked up. (now discs so no problems here either way)
oh and,
tall and narrow!
