Back when I was a young man (a long time ago) driving my first 60
TR3A in Ohio, on snowy days I liked to use it to lockup the rear
wheels & then slide the rear end around corners. As soon as the nose
was pointing in the way you wanted it, simply release the hand brake,
let out the clutch, & away you would go.... ;-) Great fun...
