i've heard all these stories about s2k's sliding out ect, now lets say im taking a turn kinda fast would it be best to let off the gas or keep giving it gas?

 

Keep giving it gas (granted you aren't going to fast to be done for anyway). Letting go of the gas will transfer the weight to the front of the car and then you are going to have a much bigger problem. You should probably take some time getting used to the car and RWD before trying to take corner's "kinda fast" anyway.

Good luck, happy driving.

The best option is take driving lessons before "taking a turn kinda fast".

 

Don't spin.

 

I would suggest finding a nice big parking lot without any objects (poles, curbs, etc). Once you find the ideal spot simply add water, or better yet, snow/ice. Less friction is great for learning. If you can afford it (after payments, in$urance, tickets, gas) consider signing up for a racing school. IMHO this is a terrible car for someone new to RWD handling.

a few pointers:
never enter a corner too fast
never put subpar tires on the S (see S02 or better)
never count on the gas pedal to save you once sliding
never drive beyond the car's abilities
never drive beyond your abilities.
never drive if you have consumed ANY alcohol.

 

The BEST thing to do is to not let a turn surprise you. If you don't know the turn, don't know the road surface of the turn, can't see how the turn goes or where it takes you, SLOW DOWN FIRST! It's called defensive driving.

However, if you are talking about being on the track, well ..................... spinning out is a risk you've already accepted.

 

Get thee to a Auto-X, Track Day or Driving School!

The car you save my be your own...
