Yes it's a phenomenon that definitely exists although I prefer to call it runaway pendulumic oscilation...


what a lot of trollop and white wine sauce

I would prefer to call it "Bullsh#t no brain run off at the mouth syndrome" myself

Everyone over this side of the world is in bed. :sleep::sleeping:

As so should I be... Got an 05:30 start in the morning :rant:

Hence the 05:30 start for me and that's after an hour and a half drive

Haha that thread made my morning, no mention of "I hope the occupants were ok" .

It would have been a very scary ride for sure.

I had the unlucky experience of being in a rig towing a van that spun the car around and ended on its side, in an old G60 patrol without a seat belt! I can tell you they have not invented a ride yet that can scare you as much !!

I know that feeling well @achjimmy
one time towing car trailer with a Statesman on it, to a mates workshop, spun me around as the breaks were not working (didnt know until I was going sideways down Wannaroo Rd in North Perth on a wet road.
another time, again with a car trailer (breaks working) however, the Fairlane I was carrying was reversed on, so the weight was ALL at the rear.
first time I have EVER done 360's down the highway - damage? dent in A frame, cracked Tail light on my HQ wagon

yeah, dont do the rides at the Royal Show anymore, as you say nothing is as scary as that.....

Upside down at 100km/h in the middle of Central Australia in a Nissan Urvan. That was a wild ride. And yep... not one I want to do again. But thanks to the awesome Grey Nomad couple with a caravan who stopped to help us out, was my first exposure to 'vanning.

Check in with the other forum and they will be able to tell you what caused it and why you are a goose for not listening to them in the first place
