Just got back from the track where I'm continuing to learn High Performance Driving.  They teach us that if we should lose control and go into a spin that we must point the front wheels straight ahead, disengage the clutch, and firmly apply the brakes.  "Both feet in!"

He said there are two reasons to disengage the clutch: 1) You won't stall the engine which might prove hard to restart and 2) you don't want the engine driven backwards if the car should travel backwards.  Makes sense, but does anybody know of a case where an engine was ruined by being driven backwards?Smiley
