The gyroscope/engine is spinning at a fairly high speed
in a clockwise direction, as seen from the back of the car and as
shown in the diagram above. When the car is turned to the left,
the torque applied to the shaft by the support is along y axis.
Reactions to forces A and B are applied to the
Structure of the car forcing the front end of the car up and
the rear end down.
If the gyroscope is spinning in the opposite direction then the
reverse will happen.
