if 'only' the rears are trying to stop, you should stay pretty straight.
It is only when all four are braking and the rears lock that it wants to

I wouldn't be surprised if the 'Vair would go straight anyhow, as the
rears have such a weight bias that they might have more retarding force
sliding than the fronts at max effort/almost sliding.
