What John said was exactly right, but you must understand how trail braking works. By applying a moderate amount of braking force thru a turn you shift the weight of the car to the front of the car which gives your front wheels better grip as you reach the apex of a turn. Too much and you either lock your fronts and understeer or take too much weight off of your rears and oversteer. not something to try for the first time on those cloverleafs. Id find some parking cones or something and try it in a parking lot. youll have fun!
