i agree with corey on this one. the only weaknesses of drums are that there are more parts, lack of self-adjustment, and lack of heat dissipation. if they are adjusted properly there is no reason they should not stop the same if not quicker than disks especially at low speeds.

To add, they are self adjusting. Most people don't know it. Drive in reverse and hit brakes hard. The self adjusters automatically tighten. Or do it yourself.
