I was wondering if anyone has pushed their car beyond the limits of adhesion yet - in a controlled enough setting that they know what's happening at the limit. Does the car push wide, or oversteer with the rear end sliding at the limit?? I assume it isn't perfectly neutral, I've only had one car that was like that.

I know that with enough power, one can induce oversteer, but I am wondering what happens without that extra help from the driver.
From looking at the alignment specs I would expect mild understeer, but you can't really tell till you drive it - So????? :confused:

I have had the opportunity to drive a SRT-10 at the track. When pushed to the limits of adhesion the car has a mild push (understeer).

I find that the car understeers a bit, as well. Lifing momentarily to let the fronts bite and the back rotate fixes most of it.
