Thank you very much! That really helped! 25-27? mph or km/h? I
guess mph, and then thats a bit over whats legal in sweden :)
Thanks again, that really cleared things out for me!
Probably what I mentioned as behaving a bit weird was that it, is
as you say, "neutral is hard to find or you "lose it"".

> another 1/2 up-second
> 1 more up third
> 1 more up fourth
