With a little research you'd have know that a DeLorean
has Vacuum Assisted Hydraulic Disc Brakes all around.
Vacuum Assist counts as Power Brakes in my book.

There are many factors that have negative influence on the
performance on the brakes like the condition of the pads,
rotors, fluid and whether the brakes have been properly bled.

On a properly maitained DeLorean you can make a 4 wheel skid
if you want to, I know from experience...
