Interesting interpretation, but historically this just means that when you
press on the brake pedal, it must lock up the tires. They have tested this two
ways. Static: One person in the car with their foot on the brake and people
then push the car to make sure the tires slide rather than roll, or Dynamic:
you do an acceleration run, and slam on the brakes, and all tires must lock up.
Hope this helps.

Hello fellow Mini Baja teams
Some people on my team seem to be under the impression
that we need a mechanical device that acts as an
e-brake, something to lock the brake pedal into full
stop. They interpreted this from reading rule 34.1
"The brake system must be capable of locking ALL FOUR
wheels in a static condition and dynamically on
pavement or an unpaved surface. I'm not too sure. Does
anyone know anything about this matter? Thanks
