I was watching the latest episode of Top Gear and they had a segment where one of the hosts went to Finland to take driving lessons from Mika Häkkinen. In the first part of the segment they show a kid taking drivers ed lessons and he's on a skid pad. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ImeYdNirmPY&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ImeYdNirmPY&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ehp3QXsklbo&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ehp3QXsklbo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
I did a skid pan in England. Bald tires on water and oil. Once you know what you're doing, it's easy to control the car. I'm a better driver for it.
