Unless you have rough terrain to tilt the car and catch a wheel (going sideways of course) - its not easy to get one of these things shiny side down.
It also shows why, if you do go off-roading, try to go straight.

Rule #2 is: "If the car begins to spin, don';t try to save it - it will only spin you off the opposite side. rather, do the right theng and steer into the slide. Either bring the car to a rest or coax it back on the racing surface if the situation permits (or edmands, like runout vanishing)"
he tried to save it, as if turning the whel mroe would make the back tires catch hold. They didn't.
That said, collent may have made it very hadr to control in any event. That was my siisue that fateful dat at Lightning - oil/water made it snap-spin before i could correct (sufficiently).

Or does that club/organization allow just anyone to ride along with just anyone else?
We're very strict that if two people are ina car, one must be an instructor, regardless of whcih seat he/she occupies.
I assumed most clubs were.
