sorry, i meant drive yur car there and learn the best way to take the coners at a resonable speed. (of course you have to choose a time where there is min traffic.) and from there you will find that there are several ways to enter coners and exit faster then normal driving.
thats how i learn anyways.

another way is to do GO-KArting (outdoor) will for sure improve yur driving.
not the slow 5HP ones. ones that can go up to 80kmph.

and from experience(cost $$$$) i have learned ,if you enconter:

understeer: (dont slam on the breaks)
1. release trottle
2. try to strighten wheel even when turning.
3 wait for tires to get grip

oversteer:
1. relese trottle
2. counter steer
3. get grip.

i think these are the basics we all need to know.

Honestly man I think it is idiots like you who kill people on the road. You cannot have that attitude, I'm all for having fun with your car but that is ridiculous.

You need to learn how to drive your car off the road, you cannot learn your limits until you go past them. And if you go past them on the public roads you will kill yourself, or worse, somebody else.

Just think about it dude, I love to see people enjoy their cars just be carefull. And if your going to drive like that on the cruise, stay away from me too. please

I dont like to be rude or anything, but it's not that simple - by a long shot. BOTH of the techniques you describe are actually almost totally incorrect (straighten the wheel?! snap the throttle closed?!?!) and would cause most cars to fall off the road if you were anywhere near the limits of handling.

Don't take this advice kids ... go and learn properly. You can't learn to drive by remembering simple rules, or by reading on forums ... but you can learn how NOT to drive on here
