Default Interesting read on driving tips

Found this link when I was randomly searching around.

The Real Truth About Understeer - Subaru Impreza WRX STI Forums: IWSTI.com

I reckon it's a great article on learning how to control understeer as well as other driving tips.

Interesting from a track perspective only.

The only way to combat understeer on the road is to stay off the throttle and await the front tyres to grip up again.

It would also depend on the corner imo to go trail braking into it.

I like how the article says 95% of understeer is caused from not loading the front suspension up. Then when you watch most people at RAC skid pans (which is where most of the 'track' work is done) they get understeer from trying to turn too much into the corner whilst getting on the power too early and unloading the front suspension. Good advice there for people to use.

Ebrake followed by a clutch kick - Not recommended doing on public roads.
