i once accelerated on a straight road (w/ vdc on) after
a light drizzle and the tail almost kicked out to the side.
if i had vdc off it wouldnt have been a pretty picture im sure.
So im just trying to get a little bit of knowledge of
how you control RWD cars.


oh and hey thanks RCZ and everyone else.
im not 100% sure what you guys meant but im starting
to get a picture of how to control it.
You are very welcome, I'm not sure what BanningZ meant, the behavior is the same for every situation regardless of whether its rain, snow, sleet or sunshine. Snow lets you get away with mistakes and makes you look like a hero, specially if you have AWD. The technique is still the same though...

Mattkim, all it takes is one day on the track and you will understand every single last thing everyone has said on this thread. Much of it is hard to grasp until you experience it. Get either on the track with an instructor or do a High Performance Driving School.

EDIT: Not every situation, mud is completely different, almost backwards...
