Tom, Thanks! I've always worried about too much throttle coming out of a corner which is probably what every novice protects against. You kid about needing more than 100 HP. But you don't need HP to decelerate, just compression and brakes? I understand oversteer and understeer, no problem. So this TT only happens when going into a corner near (or maybe over) the limit of you and the car, you are braking and do your down-shift and voila! your back tires break loose and you spin out before hitting the gas as you would coming out of the corner. Doesn't sound like you can get TT if in neutral or with the clutch in? I'm still getting use to 13.5" wide rear tires with 512 HP! Thanks again!

Nope,you still don't get it.
It is about being at or near the limit in a corner/curve and releasing the throttle. |

392 Cobra, so does that mean if I keep constant pressure on the accelerator while entering and completing a curve TTO is either greatly reduce or eliminated? So while this I guess is only the results of many hours of seat time how does one access how much is enough?
