Confused by camshafts or pondering a Perodua?
Let our motoring guru, Goodwin, explain the facts of life...

OK - so the worst of the winter is behind us, but am I the only person who would load the boot of a rwd car with, well, loads and has no problem with traction? OK, I was lucky and worked for a distribution co. where I could help myself to 200Kg of 'product' when leaving work or paving slabs from home in the morning. It induced a few degrees of negative camber and increased the pressure on the contact patch no end, thus no problem. Is it just me?

One of the very few. I once used dog food to weigh down the back of my El Camino. I was stuck outside a petfood wholesaler and that was the only stuff I could get hold of. What 'product' did you use?
