Paul you are not looking at the correct test. It is true that C&D uses subjective factors in its usual car comparos. But the brake test was not part of a car comparo. It was an instrumented test of brakes and only brakes of various types of cars, all performed at the same venue on the same day. One might argue that a different test methodology would yield more meanignful results, but there was nothing subjective about the brake testing itself.
