if you listen real close in both the videos, you can hear the engine lose speed right before the shit hits the fan, which would be an indication of lifting off the throttle...doing that mid corner will definantly induce snap oversteer

 

You have much better hearing than I do then.. I hear them let off through the turn a bit and getting back on it coming through it but not letting off completely. I see what you are saying though... Makes sense. I just can't hear it here.

 

I hear it too, as soon as the rear started sliding they lifted off the throttle completely. The ground didnt seem to have any crazy elevation changes, no drops

 

Oh ok... I thought he meant prior to the spin. Causing it to slip out.

 

In the second video you can see how early the driver is on the brakes, I'd be at full opposite lock with my foot to the floor before any braking was done...

 

Whoever reads this, do not do that. Will have the same result as the videos.

 

My car reacts differently than most, My setup is very different than most so the actions I use to avoid situations like the video shows are different than most. I said it's what I would do, not what everyone else should do.

 

Ok thank you for being clear on that. I just didnt want people to read that, and think that is what is needed to counter oversteer.

Now Im curious though, what did you do to have the car react like that? Extremely stiff springs up front?

 

Springs are pretty Neutral, but they are Bias towards the front a bit and I do not run a rear sway bar. I like for the rear end to stay as planted as possible, hence the removal of the rear sway. For anyone who's never driven an S2000 with the rear sway bar off it completely changes the characteristics of the car around.

 

It's for that reason I forced myself to get used to it. If I ever do become fast enough I'll need it when on the track so I didn't wanna get used to driving without it and have any surprises later.

Smart move for anyone looking to just DD they're car. For someone that wants to learn more about the car though it just doesn't seem to make sense doing this.
