the best thing to do when youve had a serious dose of oversteer is ...
if the roads wide enough let go of the steering wheel at a point where you think the direction of the rear (in rwd) tyres is the direction of the road till it stops flailing around ( best to let the go pedal up as well ) the biggest problem is people keep trying to correct the slide (its a natural reaction that is hard to break) but if you let go of the wheel the car will actually correct itself ( not recommended at speeds over 80Kmh!!)
the other thing to do is to simply stop accelerating, of course the problem is that the outcome largely depends on when in the slide you let the accelerator go and what control you have ( eg Ed's adventure in the trees )
