Calibers are sticking. You will need to replace the calibers that are sticking and flush all the old brake fluid out of the system then replace it with fresh fluid.

You will slow down. If you down-shift from 2nd to 1st, you will slow down somewhat. If you down-shift from 4th, 5th or 6th gear, you will slow down very dramatically. It would give you a similar feeling as if you had slammed on the brakes and locked up the wheels. Not recommended.
