I was thinking on ways to prevent the "3-wheeling" effect.
If one were to split the front left & right brake lines to use two seperate master cylinders, would that get you out of a 3-wheeling situation? Lets say your front-right wheel is in the air spinning and the left one with traction is not, engaging the right brake should get the left wheel to turn?
Of course this wouldn't be a very safe setup having seperate braking systems for the left and right, but just wondering if it would actually work... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

just tap your brakes and see if that helps.
