[s-cars] fact or fiction - diff lock relay...

[Bjørn Ødegård]

Lol! Yeah, and a lot of practice I guess! ;o))
I've tried to time the disengage a couple of times before entering my
garage, (at the end of a little bump) but sometimes it has been stuck,
and the front wheels have gone about straight ahead. No problem because
of the low speed, though.. Guess I should check the movement of the
act.mech as well!

Bjorn  :o)
