Default how audis should be actually driven ;P

we had a discussion last week about engine power cutoff 5 seconds after applying the brakes .. in other words one can't use both in the same time for more than the 5 sec.
some said that is useless to brake/accelerate through the turn in an awd. car (vid proves wrong) ..
the term trailbraking was also used in that post as being the same thing as brake and accelerate in the same time in a turn ..i always tought trailbraking is actually braking before and late through the turn up utill hard acceleration out of a turn .. maybe some other experienced folks here can clarify that for the rest of us.
well this video contains footage of rally driving .. see the use of both feet brake/accelerate in the same time (but that seems to be done to throw the car through the turns .. Vonk suspected) ..anyway enjoy:<ul><li><a href="http://209.128.70.155/AudiS1_Rally.mpeg">right click -SAVE AS :Super video (thanks VONK !)</a></li></ul>
