I'd suggest that since you are asking the questions you are asking that a brake shop would be in order.

(PS. When the Cobra set the 0-100-0 record of 13.8 seconds word was that Miles actually did use both feet on the brakes and that more of the time was spent braking than accelerating.)
I’m sure it’s not right. I’ve owned other non-power braked cars and these are just rock hard. No movement on the pedal, even with my 250lbs pushing hard.

I’ll take it to a brake shop. But what type of system is it? I don’t see a brake setup under the hood.

Thanks
