Re: 42220

David,
          You need to tell the full story. On that occasion you were still working
with the testing section and were part of a performance trial that was collecting
data to stop that particular software related fault. A new version of software cured
that problem. If super series is working correctly the wheel spin will be restricted
to 2 revolutions and the control system via the processor will take over. Yes, it
did happen on that occasion but it no longer does.
Cheers
Bob
