phantom grip diffs

[sfwilliams at comcast.net (Scott F. Williams)]

Larry, I can't speak for Toby, but dragging the brakes is exactly how I got
my rallycar to move when I snapped an axle/shredded a tire. It didn't take
much effort, but over a 23-mile transit stage back to service, it did make
my rotors glow a lil' bit. Fuel economy was rather sucky, too. :^)

  A simpler solution to the quaife problem is just to apply slight brake
  pressure if you ever get one front wheel off the ground. That should be
  enough to get torque transferred to the most-grippy wheel (ie. the one
  that is touching the ground) and get you moving again.
