I wonder how much the Quattro system may have helped with that. >This is what happened to a friend when there's oil on the highway ,doing 95 >mph [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > >http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1253130/oil_on_the_highway_at_95_mph_directors_cut/ Nice recovery.

Well, I wouldn't say bad, but he was a bit slow and I'd say it was more luck than skill that kept that A4 off the guard rail...

Maybe, if he were expecting to find oil on the road. Otherwise, I think he gets a second to go, "WTF"! Even though I agree luck is the major factor in any recovery like that, if that were me, I'd be taking all the credit. Someone might note that his trajectory doesn't change much... ----- - gpsman >>>> Nice recovery. >>> Bad recovery. [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Slow?!

He overcorrected, and didn't, assuming it wasn't a Quattro, accelerate to straighten the car. > Even though I agree luck is the major factor in any recovery like > that, if that were me, I'd be taking all the credit. LOL, he did better than most other drivers out there... > Someone might note that his trajectory doesn't change much... It hadn't if he'd spun either. > ----- > > - gpsman Ulf |
