Rear Sway Bar?

[ddongbap]

Has anyone ever oversteered to the point of almost spinning out? Or do most people just 'feel' the rear end start to step out?

That can happen. . . especially when the inside rear tire lifts off the ground. Snap oversteer is a result of stiff rear suspension (and for me, I prefer it over understeer). I find the transition to be very predictable and very controllable. As long as I can get the car rotated, I can just gun and shoot in the direction that I want to go. However, all this is still a symptom of going into the corner too hot and/or picking the wrong line. Conversely, if this were to happen and understeer were to occur, I'd just hang on and wait for when (and hope that) traction comes back, all while doing my best to unload the outside front tire.
