 Previous Message Turning the steering wheel to the left (toward nine o'clock) will cause the back end to swing to the right (toward three o'clock). So if the back end is already swinging toward 3, then the way to correct that swing is by turning the front wheels the same way. Turning them the other way would only accelerate the spin. I wish I had more self-control, but my know-it-all nature is overriding my suspicion that this whole thread is a long-con bonbonning.
