Your car is then setup to understeer like a
stock FWD car. In a FWD car setup for the track or a racing application the understeer inherent to FWD will be dialed out and if you lift you will lose it. Driving a FWD fast through a corner is more "committed" then RWD because you can't modulate the rear with the throttle and thus a "lift-throttle" when at the limit usually ends up with the driver facing traffic.
In fact, "Don't Lift" is a FWD racing mantra.
Examples I'm not proud of:
So Folks, before you subscribe to any "saying" please keep in mind what the specific setup is on any car before approaching the limit. Also, it is my experience that the FRS is quite prone to LTO with the Nanny State turned off.
