2 years ago i impounded the ITA field at a Lime Rock SCCA event,
and made them produce their shop manuals and explain the relationship
between the steering gear described in the manual and the steering gear
which actually appeared in their cars (changes to the steering are strictly
against the IT rules in SCCA racing.)

it was interesting how many VW products had neatly disconnected
power steering hoses; they liked the ratio in the racks, though, so
they just filled the racks up with gear lube and kept using them as
manual racks.

nobody seemed to have overdeveloped arms or anything.

i, on the other hand, got an overdeveloped right hand from filling
out all the paperwork that i had to send up to the chief steward.
