Yea , that's a Super Charger thing - You get spinning so fast , you create a swirly wind underneath the motor which un-cogs the actuator, disengaging the front axle.

CAUTION - Those fast revolutions can actually create a vortex landing you in a worm hole . When you come out of the spin , there's know telling where you might be

Just be careful buddy

Would a splash guard over the axle made of thin aluminum sheet metal stop that?
