ust do the oppisit in a FWD to that you would do in a RWD, if your in a front wheel drive go into the corner with your foot hard on the gas just as you begin to turn into the apex lift off the gas and watch the back slide out but don't freak out if you touch the breaks you just make it worse, if the back begins to side out just apply a little more gas and it will sort itself out,
thats why a lot of people don't have guts to drive FWD to the limit as it can be scary going well into the corner with your foot still hard on the gas and when it does start to slide out it feels weird sticking your foot back onto the gas pedal, if you want to learn FWD go on heaps of dirt tracks as that will make it easier for you to get the back out at slower speeds and once your used to controlling the car when its trying to go out of control then you can move onto the tarmac and apply it there.


No that not the fastest teqnique for a FWD. You should break as required for the corner and get it into the correct gear for the corner. Then the right foot stays on the power the left foot comes off the clutch and onto the break, to generate over steer you apply more break while keeping the throttle down to maintain your speed. You modulate the break and throttle (Usually keep the throttle flat to the floor or close to it) to make sure you keep the front wheels gripping. Because your drive wheels never break loose and the trottle is open you have full power early on exit. Get it right and if feels amazing. When rwd ppl ride with me they are surpised at the cornering speed and the wierd sensation.

This is great in small low powered cars but in my mind would not work as well with more power. Powerful cars need FR layout
