A vehicle braking system is provided for delaying the flow of brake fluid to the rear brakes to reduce the risk of locking the rear brakes. The braking system preferably has a master cylinder, a pair of disk brakes respectively positioned on a pair of rear wheels of a vehicle, and inlet and outlet brake lines each respectively connected to the master cylinder and the pair of rear disk brakes. A fluid circulator valve preferably is positioned between and in fluid communication with the master cylinder and the pair of rear disk brakes and is connected to the inlet and outlet brake lines. A rear brake delay valve preferably is positioned between and in fluid communication with the circulator valve and the pair of rear disk brakes and is connected to the inlet brake line. The rear brake delay valve preferably has a housing including a first opening connected to a first portion of the inlet brake line and a second opening connected to a second portion of the inlet brake line, and a check valve positioned within the housing in fluid communication with the first and second openings. The check valve has a perforated member having a predetermined sized orifice extending therethrough so that the check valve delays fluid flowing from the first opening through the second portion of the inlet brake lines and to the pair of rear disk brakes.
