oversteer

i know oversteer depends on several variables, included but not limited to: road surface; road speed; tire profile; tire pressure; car load; weight distribution in the car; suspension geometry etc etc.. so. depending on what changes and by how much, at times you will oversteer. other times you won't. unless your problem is consistent, i wouldn't worry too much after checking all the usual suspects listed by the lads here. try a different road with the same setup, see if you oversteer. try dry weather (if you haven't) and maybe coarse gravel tarmac - hopefully it doesn't rip the rubber off your tires.. :D
report back after a few more runs/tests..

dont really want to be testing it, hard to catch when it goes. i quote jay i think it was in a previous post, "if oversteer was a colour it would be brown"hahaha

I tried playing with the tyre pressure a few times and found the best way to keep the rear planted [ mind you i dont have a rear arb yet] is 24 psi on yokohama advans neova. But its only because of the really stiff sidewall that i was able to do this.

Car felt more stable and the rear end wouldnt step out so easily.
