Install the rear brake kit, and set the front brakes for strong, and almost no rear braking power. This will allow you to lock up the front, while the rear still spin. If you do it right, you can go full speed to the corner, hit the brakes, and pivot around the turn. This is a good trick to learn

REAR! If you put it in the front you will not be able to stear at all.

If your going to put one in, it"ll go in the rear. Otherwise you'll have a tough time with steering.
