How would that be useful? Sounds interesting but I don't understand.
When you first mentioned it I was thinking of a drifter, wanting a rear only brake to initiate slides, adding a second calliper could potentially be easier than converting the existing handbrake/Ebrake to hydraulic on some vehicles. But for the drag strip I'm baffled, is it FWD? It could be for burnouts, but I thought trucks were all 4WD or RWD and I don't see the benefit in just burning out the front tyres on a 4WD.
Unless you have a front only brake too and burn out the fronts and rears separately which would be safer than doing all 4 together.
