Back Issues - 2007 

May 2007 - Target Fixation: Something Worth Looking At!
Recently, I had a training experience, where I ended up with a couple of damaged ribs and an arm twice it's normal size. The objective of the training exercise was to learn to deal with looking at where you want to go in a high stress situation and not at the distraction. Unfortunately, the student who was driving at the time, didn't handle stress very well and drove the vehicle off the track and hit me with it.

January 2007 - Tyres: More than Just Rubber
I was inspired to revisit this subject by a "late night" conversation with friends who had just fitted cross-ply tyres to their vehicles without realizing it. Many 4x4 owners still go for this option either for tradition, cost or just blind faith in the information given by the tyre dealer. In reality they are a false economy and they are not as safe as radial tyres.
