Analysis
Upon completion of an airshow the plt returned to coronado arpt. Upon touchdown the acft tried to nose over & a go-around was made. After two touch & go's the plt isolated the problem to a locked right brake so he attempted to remedy the problem by cutting the brake line at the master cylinder. He then made another touch & go & the acft again tried to nose over. The plt then diverted to Albuquerque intl arpt & after several low passes landed in dirt adjacent to rwy 30. After about a 400 ft roll the acft encountered rough soft terrain & nosed over.
