they are probably set up to stop under those conditions
dont try it on a road car that is set up for the road
maybe nothing will happen but if you think about it sensibly, this is what you would expect to happen in theory
i just dont want to see someone else go splat if it can be avoided

Sounds like an old wives tale to me. A lot of the fastest drag cars at Eastern creek (particularly the mazdas) run wide slicks on the rear and skinny radials up front, and they always go 100mph+ and they always stop fine..

i dont know of any rules, but just think about it logically............it IS a disaster waiting to happen, especially seeing as the front wheels take most of the cars weight under brakes
dont do it or you will end up like Todd Wilkes  r.i.p

what is the rule about slicks on the rear and standard radials on the front..............

i've heard that this is a disaster waiting to happen - especially at 100+ mph and then braking heavily.........
