You'll end up drifting a bit, but at least you won't have your rear end sliding around to the front like you do if you clutch or (shudder) hit the brakes. If you live near enough to where they have lots of cold and snow, go ice-racing for a day - it'll be some of the best money you've spent on your truck. -- andy beals bandy@lll-crg.arpa {sun!lll-crg,ihnp4!mit-eddie}!bandy If you love something, hit it with a club. If it comes back to you, then it must really like you.
