what is "rotational steering"?
Discussion
I've always been told crossing arms was a bad habit. can't rememebr any specific source though. this is how I turn and what I would call "shuffling":
1. start with hands at 9 and 3 o'clock on the wheel
2. Initiate turn by placing right hand at 12 o'clock position
3. Rotate wheel 90 degrees with right hand, letting wheel slip through left hand. This places the hands back at 9 and 3 o'clock but with the wheel turned 90 degrees right.
4. Repeat to add more steering, hold for maintaining turn (fine tuning with throttle steer
), reverse procedure to unwind steering as you accelerate out of the corner.
I can see that crossing hands is potentially faster, but it seems you would have less control, especially at the traction limit, when quick but subtle adjustments may be called for.
