setting up a FWD for oversteer...

[sfwilliams@comcast.net (Scott F. Williams)]

Larry, the request for information was a means to *eliminate* power off
oversteer. (How often do you see that sort of idea? LOL) The idea makes me
queasy, but that's what Joe wants to do. I've already mentioned that tuning
all the oversteer out of the chassis will make the car handle like a Crown
Victoria, but again... if that's what he wants then there's certainly a way
to do it.
