WTF is this? Wasn't the talk about how the suspension handles
_cornering_? The front wheels are straight and both rear tires

Hey, Larry, take another look at that Spitfire photo. The front wheels
aren't straight. The car is leaning to the right, indicating that it's
turning left. The front wheels are turned slightly to the right. He's
countersteering to counteract the slide.
