Yeah I'm not worried about my tires since I need new ones for winter anyway.

My tires rolled over horribly a few times - the car was skidding sideways. So putting some 'lubricant' on the shoulders will allow the tire to break loose instead of 'skidding' like it was?

FWD are one of the easier cars to drive fast personally. If you oversteer you just stay on the gas and point the car where you want it. With RWD you have to counter-steer and once you are past a point there's no going back
Very true, but I was in a couple RWD cars and holy hell they were fun...lap time be damned, when that ass end kicked out it was all giggles :reechy:
