Reply to "Girling brakes."

I'd like to know if anyone has quantified the difference of disabling the proportioning valve or leaving it as designed. I still have mine functioning and have considered pulling out the guts a few times and I never have. I understand how it was originally set up but I've also read from guys on the Pantera list that although the brakes feel better initially, there was no difference in actual stopping distance. Should we call Mythbusters and see if they'll do a show on this topic?
And why wouldn't a Pantera be a race car? How about the cars it competed with back in the day like a big block or LT 1 Vette? Were they taxicabs? I know some guy delivered Pizzas with a Pantera in Michigan.
