Have you seen how many people it takes for those guys to safely do a reverse-park maneouvre when they retire? :-D

(I keep missing the best F1 races, didn't see the landmark first JB win! :cry: )

On my IAM test which was 9 years ago I completed the reverse around the corner and completely ballsed it up!! I short I "Swan Necked" the manouvre. At the end of the test the examiner so he wasn`t too bothered about the manouvre as advanced driving is all about going forward!! I thought thanks buddy!!

...as I said... it is amazing how many folk who are quite adept at making a car go forwards, safely, smoothly & progressively, cock-up the slow speed manoeuvres. Its all about being at one with the machine so you understand it in all of its modes and all of its moods. We have all got to practise :)
