I have seen guys running Legends cars do some "different" things with brake systems. 

While it is common to run an adjustable brake bias valve, most just do for front to rear, but I have seen two valves used with the second valve adjusting braking forces on the front wheels side to side all in an effort to make the car really turn in the corner. But this is for oval racing. 

Oval track guys do some strange things to their cars.

Or you could adjust the brake shoes on one side tighter than the other to pull you around the same side corners. Guess that would only work on an oval...unless you spun around... 

JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
If you try this...well, that's the brakes (or the breaks...).

I like that idea, a quad master cylinder, but only if it were totally adjustable so a driver could alter the braking forces for each wheel. 

Wow, think of the racing impact.
