Gyroscopic Precession Affect of Spinning Wheels on High Speed Cars Questions.
In this video, at 22:16, the Physics Teacher spins a bicycle wheel, holds the axle in both hands and sits on a movable stool. When he leans the wheel to the left, the stool turns left, when he leans the wheel to the right, the stool turns right.
What kind of affect does this gyroscopic affect have on high speed cars, 3 wheel cars or 4 wheel cars? What does it want to make the car do that it would not do if it was on ice skating blades instead of wheels? Anyone want to share some simple knowledge of this, videos, examples, links etc?

They have neither the time, the training, nor the inclination for strategic thought.
