    its when the car doesn't turn to the degree of the front wheel turn angle. So an extreme case would be if you turned the wheel to the right and the car kept going straight but in this case its just causing the car to turn wide. Oversteer is the opposite, its when the back kicks out. Drifting is basicaly controlled oversteer.

    • @timothydraper3687
      @timothydraper3687 Před rokem

      I guess oversteer is better due to the ability (when the driver is skilled) to steer into the gathering skid and to remedy things before the skid happens (given enough knowledge of the car in question).
