Hi Janie I am just passing this on from father , he says, no clicks, no brakes, he thinks your brakes are over adjusted there should be some slack in the cables also this will ensure you are actualy getting full rudder when you need it, he seems to recall there were a few incidents during spinning when people couldn't get full rudder because of mis adjusted brakes, it doesn't seem the right thing to do to make a tyre turn on concrete if it's not moving at all you might have stopped on a stone or something sharp which would damage it, I wouldn't try and turn the steering wheel on the car if I could help it without some forward movement jusy to be kind to the tyres


regards Gordon
