more like 20%, but I have seen someone struggle to turn a Smart thru' 180 degrees, gave me a good laugh.
It's damn near impossible.

Or at least they should be. Which is why I was so amused
I turned my truck around in the same space, and less than half the time.
I wish I'd recorded the incident.
I want to see 'bella drive a truck with all of the wheels on one side up in the air.
Given the size of that truck, pretty impressive feat, Bella. But did you leave tire-streaks behind you?

just rode it home. a real beauty. a little tiny, but real cute. i've ridden one-seaters heavier than this two seater.
my way home was along the river rhine, a nice ride. It has its own rythm, like all tandems do, so it takes some miles to get used to it.

I have (while driving a similar truck) had all 6 wheels off the ground (all at the sime time) it was breif, but adrenaline indusing, just long enough to wonder "How do you land these?" and then I knew: heavily, my back has never really worked properly since.
