I think it would also be advantageous, in terms of braking, to run a stiffer front suspension to help resist to much weight going to the front tires and overwhelming the tires and losing traction. Also, a stiffer front suspension would keep some weight over the rear tires which will increase the over all grip of all 4 tires which will decrease stoping distances.
