Based on the weight distribution F to R, rear discs would probably be
overkill, considering the ABS. Perhaps regular cabs would benefit more than
my CC from rear discs.

Has anyone ever watched a Formula 1 race where the camera angle showed the
Carbon/Carbon disc brakes glowing bright orange under braking? Scary.
