Has your brakes ever went out on your G?

Just curious if this has happened to anyone else. On two occasions, when I tried doing a donut and then tried to brake, my brake pedal momentarily gave out. This only happens when I have my steering wheel turned all the way. Anybody have any idea why this happens?

Yeah, it's probably something called pad knockback. Read this very detailed article here.
