Unintended acceleration quattro Digest, Vol 72, Issue 28

[Mark Rosenkrantz]

I grabbed the wheel of a students car once, mid spin.  Absolutely saved us
from the wall at Lime Rock Park, but I got (rightfully) chided for grabbing
the student's wheel.

It worked out... but what if it didn't?

So yeah... instructors are in a tough spot.  Sometimes, we end up with sore
necks.

Scott, you going down to VIR in a few weeks?  I'm going to co-drive Jeff's
SPEC Miata and help him (driving the Freightliner) with the tow.
