Carrying this thread on with 2 questions:
1. On long down grades when brakes are needed (already down shifted), is it better to apply brakes long and steady or harder (to take off more speed) then release (to allow cooling)?
2. At a stop, once fully stopped, do you release the brakes just enough to let the pad come to a stop on a different section of the rotor - believing that lets heat dissipate better and reduce chances of warping the rotor?
