Yes. Which, at MC's, extends to navigating the mid-course gates. ie. I can navigate the "middle" bit of some motorkhana courses at wide open throttle now.
Obviously, that's only in the dry. In the wet, I'll still need to moderate the throttle as I steer. So I'd better not get *too* lazy!

I'm competing this Sunday June 12. Not sure if it's AM or PM. Right now I'm on a tropical island in the Caribbean! Seriously. So I can't check the MC schedule.
But I'll be back real soon. I'll post up when I find out if it's morning or afternoon. This is the finals, so it'll be a big, interesting day.
I'm itching to get the FTO out on the track...

You jack both front wheels up. Then turn one of 'em by hand.
If the other wheels spins in the same direction, that means (apparently) that you have an LSD. If it spins in the opposite direction, it's an open diff.

I'm back home now. I've checked the schedule, and I'm competing in the morning session on Sunday.
If anyone wants to come along and take a look, come and say 'hi'!
