You both only quote my comments on the quattro brkes and twist it to imply that I was suggesting it will be fine to tow 850 kg on an unbraked tariler.
Well, what were you trying to say? I read it as "An Audi Quattro has good enough brakes to stop an extra 850kg" which is true as long as (a) that 850kg is in the right place (my point) and (b) the braking force required for the trailer is along the direction of travel (Floyd Raser's point). When these conditions are not met, it doesn't matter whether you have an Audi Quattro or a Ford Prefect: brake hard and you are in dead trouble.
Go back and read what i said abot brakes being seesntial
To make it easier for your standards of literacy I have deleted the comment about the quarrtro
You are quite right - literacy is very important. As are seesntial brakes on a quarrtro pulling a tariler. I'd hate to drive without seesntial brakes. The un-seesntial sort are just so passé.
