[Fot] Big TR OD and Gearbox rebuilding

[Tony Drews]

I think the full meaning of both feet in is push in the clutch and 
lock up the brakes.  Lock that baby down!  Unless, of course, you're 
heading right for a wall and need to try something desperate to try 
to miss it.  If you're HARD on the brakes but not locked, boom when 
you start going backwards.
