Understeer in snow

[James Russell]

Understeer... what fun.

Granted a car's characteristics play a large role in how much a car pushes
in a turn, but also the driving technique can help reduce that push and can
lead to a little oversteer, and a smile.

As I have learned, as well as most people on this list likely know, when
you brake the weight of the car shifts to the front of the vehicle, making
it easier to steer cause all the weight is on the steering wheels. Hence if
you brake, steer, then accelerate while the car is turning you may
(emphasis on may) obtain the desired oversteer.

Anyway, the point I am trying to get at is that there are a few factors
that help cause oversteer and driving technique is one of them.

Enjoy the snow and ice.
