I wouldn't use motor braking at all on a speed run car. If you look back at my first post I suggest using a mechanical brake. I think motor brakes are a lot of what gets people in trouble when they gear higher. I also think that the two speed will be an issue going that fast. Eliminating as much rotating mass as possible is critical for speed runs.

100 mph in a car that big is pretty serious. I would just like to see him go the best route possible and not the cheap route which will lead to issues.

The old saying still stands:

Cheap, Fast, Reliable, Pick two.
