The problem as I see it is that a high thrust ship can rotate and use a
push to essentially increase its "main drive."

I agree with others that this is an abuse of the rules - though I wasn't
above using it in Jerry's first FB race ;-)

I think that a simpler solution, more in the spirit of the rules, is
that
pushes may not be within 90° of the initial movement vector. This
maximises
other things that you can do with them while preventing abuse.
