Learn to counter steer or get your right foot off the floorboard. :bigthumbup:
If you're FWD you should be happy your car doesn't go into terminal understeer :thumbsdown: |

| Well you can deal with it, take your foot out of the fun pedal a bit, or set your suspension up stiffer in the rear so it sticks harder. |

Don't do that. Just unhook your rear anti-roll bar. You'll plow you front wheels into a curb in no time. :bigthumbup: |

On a FWD, NEVER let off the gas on mid corner while "fishing" you WILL SPIN OUT.
You ass is moving faster than the front of the car, if you let off, the front will grab more traction and swing your fast moving ass right around on you.
Well, on an NX anyways.
Modulate the throttle and steering to get where you're going.
That or slow down more through the turns and get some suspension tuning ;) |

You forgot the important part ducky :P
You have a longer wheelbase than me or an Impulse, I think you can get away with it. |

| My comment wasn't to let off mid corner, it was to let off so that you don't reach those speeds where this happens in the first place. |

How about driving normally until a corner that doesnt have a curb and experiment? :)
Find a large parking lot after it rains.. make sure its smooth.. and try it out.. Or wait until winters around...
I know to keep my front end grippin around a high speed corner, i have to floor it. If i let off my gas, my ass end will swing around and thats bad..

Good point. You've got to store them somewhere until the ground thaws in the spring. |
