What direction you press on the disc commands the game how to TURN the
car; if you don't touch it at all your car will simply go straight from
where it is.


 \ | /
--   --
 / | \

A rather rough ASCII drawing of the disc... or, actually, the directions
you can press on it.

The lines made with: |  and  --
ARE "A" LINES

The lines made with: /  and  \
ARE "B" LINES

They aren't really called "A" and "B" of course; this is just an
example to show how this works :P.

Okay, the A lines (N, S, W, E) tell the game to make a sharp turn in the
direction you command.  The B lines (NE, SE, SW, NW) tell the game to do
a slight turn in the direction you command.  That's actually common
sense if you think about it, but it's easier to see this somewhere at
first.
