RE: [ST] Cornering

["Andrew" <yogig@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You know I have never thought of it that way.  Lemme tell you, I would
do just about anything to NEVER highside again.  I had always considered
the rear wheel slide to be pretty safe, hell watching SBK and GP, they
slide both wheels, but I always thought it would be pretty cool to spin
it up driving out, or back it in on the brakes. While it looks cool,
they definitely risk highsides a lot during races.  I would much prefer
a lowside next time, so maybe I'll have to temper those spin it up/back
it in fantasies.

Aye, but a rear wheel slide can cause much more damage if it hooks up.  
Front wheel slides only result in a low-side.
