9-3 Wet Braking & HP Differences

I have 1994 900S Turbo and experience the same braking problem under wet
conditions. It gives a scary moment the first second or two that you hit
the brakes in the rain at highway speeds and little seems to be happening.
If you really hit the brakes (I've played a bit to see what will happen),
there is a possibility that one brake will grab more quickly than the other
and you will feel a strong pull in that direction until the other brake
grabs. If you are not expecting it, you could find yourself halfway to
another lane.

It is one of those things that I had hoped Saab would have addressed in the
modifications that were made between the 1994 and later models. I guess
not.

John
