Hmmm...I never knew what TTO meant. I guess it is, through either a lift, or a tap on the brake, unloading the rear end so the car will rotate. Same idea as trail breaking, only in the middle of a turn rather than the beginning. I was thinking of throttle steering like betty said, using it it to balance the car, but also to direct the path of the car to use all of the track out avaialable. I guess TTO is the same as throttle steering, only to a larger degree. I was guessing it was used quite a bit, but at my slow entry speeds and HP, I was always just WOT by the time I was at the apex. If I ever get faster, I would think that my driving would have to change because I would have to balance the car all the way through the turn, and I would be going to fast to add throttle with out a corresponding unwinding of the wheel.
I would have never figured oak tree for a throttle steering turn. I may have trail braked a touch, but was W.O.T. shortly after turn in.
While I'm in the mode of "what does it mean", what is "opposite lock" when someone is talking about driving?
