You're right. I did make a typo and what i meant to write was "I had to go slow in the turn." I "meant" to say this given the wet conditions of the day. I had to take the turn slower than you normally would, which given that particular turn, is not exactly slow in the first place.
:hihi:
This thread went from boring to hilarious. You should drop the point about clutching, ans7812. I think you quite clearly lost that one even if you did have a point (and you didn't).
You cannot deny there is something called religion. The question mark isn't about religion (religion is the act of somebody worshipping a god, which happens all over the place). The question is whether there is a god in the first place to worship.
Personally I prefer oranges over apples, but would choose a banana over both.
Axus - I think 'reason for why' is okay. A bit uncommon these days (a bit like spelling or punctuation or sense), but not technically wrong.
I bet I made a spelling mistake after critisising spelling!
My friendly grammar nazi begs to differ... you can have "the reason why" and "the reason for"... and "the reason that", depending on the surrounding words. It just doesn't make sense to me. But anyway, that's irrelevant.
which on snow pretty much equals locking the driven wheels (not that youd know living in sunny sa ... grrr)
anyone who uses digital type gas pedal inputs on snow (bar those doing it for funsies while its safe) should not be allowed on the roads anyway
rubbish its one of the best things to do since it automagically will put the driven wheels into a ~0% long slip situation
you should really learn a bit of vehicle dynamics since your knowledge combined with the fact that you apparently think you know everything is a incredibly dangerous combination
pushing the clutch in when you find yourself in a slide is usually one of the most sensible things to do as it will give you roughly the largest amount of available lateral traction
especially in normal road driving where you dont know your car perfectly to the point that you know exactly how much throttle to apply to equalize the wheel slip and where youre caught off guard
there no reason not to either
why would they spin with nothing connected to them to make them spin ?
great so what you did was enter a braking drift which has nothing to do with pushing in the clutch
well done with leaving out the wrong input you made that caused you to spin
You know, the climate is nearly the only nice thing here. 0-10 night time during winter, 12-18 during the day. 12-16 during the night in summer, 19-27 during the day. For the first time in like 20 years, it snowed here a few months ago and I was in Bulgaria on holiday at the time. They just have two seasons here, to be honest: 3 months winter, 9 months summer.
What I really love though is how they make their driveways. I kid you not, in one of the most expensive suburbs, here which sits on a steep hill, they make them roughly 25-35degree uphills to climb into your garage.
and all that (I had a few laughs reading it) just because you, ans7812, thought everyone tried to tell to step on the throttle all the way in an overstear situation. Are you thinking about your reply, while reading the posts of those trying to talk to you? (sorry, OT, cant even remember the beginning)
