Hey All,

Man would this guy have a hard time on a restart in NASCAR.

Not sure what you mean by the opposite lock?

"Man would this guy have a hard time on a restart in NASCAR."

Easily done Ed, there wouldn't be another NASCAR on the circuit in that weather!!!!

"Not sure what you mean by the opposite lock?"

Turning into the a 'skid'.
As in when the rear end steps out you turn into it to counteract the effect.
If the tail over steers to the left it is countered by turning the wheel to the left or opposite locking through the direction of travel.
QED.

Hey All,

Kittos Thanks! I certainly understand turning into a skid - just never heard it called opposite lock.
