I'm sure everyone's tried it by now but for the few that haven't, this is
one of the better reviews I've seen.  I'd say that I agree with most of the
good/bad points.

What's a "Scandinavian flick"?  Is something akin to what you
do at the Lauda Linksknick (lift for a second and flick the wheel
over to the left, maintaining speed thru the turn)?

Scandanavian flick = "Smultronst?llet" (Ingmar Bergman, 1957)

No, it's where you brake somewhat to the inside of the approach to a tight
bend, steer away from and then immediatly into it so as to set up a pendulum
motion to swing the rear of the car around the turn, without losing speed.
In theory, I haven't done a realy successful one yet. <g>
