| has gloss | eng: The Scandinavian flick, Finnish flick, Manji Drifting, or Pendulum turn, is a technique used in rallying. While approaching the turn the driver applies a slight steering input to the opposite direction of the turn, then steering into the turn, while sharply lifting off the throttle and (in some cases, depending on speed and type of layout) lightly applying the brakes. This will cause the car to slide sideways facing slightly away from the turn. Then steering input is applied towards the turn and as the driver releases the brake pedal while still holding down the throttle the car will slingshot itself around the corner to the desired direction. Of course, countersteering will again be required to control the induced oversteer. A recent research paper initiates a mathematical analysis of this technique. |

| has gloss | spa: La sacudida escandinava es una técnica de conduciión usada en los rallies. Al acercarse a una curva, el conductor aplica un suave giro en sentido contrario al de la curva, mientras presiona los pedales del acelerador y freno simultáneamente. Esto provoca un deslizamiento lateral del coche, haciéndolo mirar en sentido contrario al de la curva. Después se aplica el giro en dirección a la curva, mientras el conductor libera el freno, pero con el acelerador pisado a fondo; lo que hace que el coche salga disparado trazando la curva. Por supuesto, el contravolante será necesario para controlar el sobreviraje producido por la maniobra. |
