Turbs3000 Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 In the in-car video why did he turned so hard to the right while in a wheel stand? EDIT: Ya what they said! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHIEF Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) why the fuck would he turn the wheel in the air. :dumb: X 2 And why not shift to bring the car down?

DKilbourne Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 It definitely looks like a panic move from someone who hadn't ever dealt with that before. Wheels straight, wheels straight, then OH SHIT 45 degrees to the right and land.....oops. Luckily the guy he was racing wasn't too fast and was able to stop before it got really bad.

Das Borgen Posted November 22, 2012 Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 This is the exact reason you have a piece of tape at 12 o'clock on the steering wheel to mark straight-ahead front wheels in the event of a wheelie. You'd think Ford would sell the car that way or if you do right-left type motorsports, to do the same when correcting overtsteer events Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he peddled out of it half way decent. as far as the steering i lock my left arm against the net and it keeps me from doing that. until you are there you have no idea how you will react. The car was drifting to the center and his natural reaction was to correct, and correct and correct some more lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Borgen Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I notice my tape every single fucking time I need to make a correction on race tracks, autocrosses. You will find a lot of road rae cars have that simple countermeasure, no matter the level of motorsport Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think Ford would sell the car that way So your argument is that even though he didn't notice he was looking at the sky and didn't notice his arms were crossed over each other the wheel was turned so far. He WOULD have noticed a piece of electrical tape on the steering wheel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Borgen Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Speaking from personal experiences on track, yes. You don't go looking for tape. It catches your eye just enough Then again, this guy is a noob and just panicked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
