Prayer brake

The sudden merge to the far right lane and slowing from 90 down to 50mph after realizing you've just flown by a policeman. Normally done in the hope that the policeman didn't clock you as you went by and that you won't get a ticket.

Hey - take a prayer brake - you just flew by a cop with his radar out.

Put the brakes on

To try to stop somthing from happening with actions or words.

1: Hey what are you doing tonight?
2: Not a chance.
1: Why do you have to put the brakes on me?

Racing Brake Check

An action done under caution right before the green flag. This is done intentional when the leader knows he is fixing to be beat by the second place car. Considered by most to be a chicken shit action.

I did a racing brake check right before the green flag dropped to get separation from second place. I won the race even though I caused them damage…
