The Le Mans brake points are very deep, but a lot of this is because the car is slow. It's braking stat is very good but not epic. Coindicentally, the FU braking stat of the Furai is the exact same as that of the Jaguar C-X75 R3 Spec. However, the Jag hammers into the first Mulsanne braking zone a good 50mph faster than the Mazda - 240s vs 190s mph.

As you probably know, energy is proportional to the square of speed. For braking, this means that there's much more energy to shed (ie, takes a longer braking distance) going from 240 to 190 than from 190 to 140, which is more in turn than 140 to 90, etc. Taking those 50mph of the the top speed pays a huge dividend in reduced braking distance.

F14T and MP4-X, in contrast, reside on a different planet entirely when it comes to braking performance.
