Don't worry, happy ending for this clip.
100304spin.mpg (1.5Mb) Corner worker who IMO was way too close to the track, had an eyeful. My last run, just going that _little_ bit faster, when I braked while not going perfectly straight. Came at him at 50mph, but later when I watched the tape I was pointed at him but sliding away. Anyway a bit too close! |

Yeah, from what I've seen (admittedly not a wide
variety), you are in at least as much danger on the inside as on the outside. If somebody is a little fast and loses it, the oversteer will only be for a little bit, then after some speed loss it will bite and start to head to the inside. I generally don't see anyone going to the outside unless they are way to fast and just lock up the fronts and plow. It is a lot more predictable for the spectator/bowling pin. |
