CivivSiRacer, Thanks a lot! To recover from oversteer the 1-2 times it happened to me, I tried the "correction - pause - recovery" mentioned in racing books. Yet, it's hard to think about a 3 step maneuver when you're panicking because you're about to hit a tree. Your way to explain it is easier to remember ...
