Some handy instructions on how to post pictures from photobucket are here:
http://practicallyclassics.phpbbhosts.c ... f=2&t=4120

or if you would like to post them directly to the forum there are instructions here:

I have never tried this from a mobile device so I'm not sure if it would work or not.
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.
