What's the best way to fix a under steer problem. I was in an empty parking lot the other day and was messing around (drift, cookies, fun stuff) and I had a under steer problem.
Any suggestions? Thanks

 

uh cure that with oversteer. grippier tires or wider turns. stronger front springs will help but there isnt much to fix understeer, cheaply id say

 

Sorry for the stupid quistion haha this is my first fun car I can actually corner in and not have to worry about rolling a slick off the wheel haha I have some other questions so bare with me haha what is a wonder bar and do I already have it? What is a panhard bar?

 

Stiffer rear sway bar might help.

Is your car stock? Drifting is always going to be a pain in the *** without a posi. You'll always have one tire with no power going through it that's gonna keep the car from sliding as well as it should because it's just rolling.

The other thing that alarms me is that you say "understeer". Understeer is when you turn the wheel and the car just goes straight, the front tires squeal and the car doesnt turn as far as it should. It "plows" forward. This can easily happen if you're not transferring the weight to the front of the car porperly. In order to induce oversteer you need to transfer weight to the front of the car then apply power to the rear. The other way is to just have enough lateral G's (cornering) and apply enough power to the rear to lose traction, but again that isn't going to work very well if you've got a one-wheel-peel differential. You'll have one tire that's constantly trying to drag you back into going in the direction you're pointed, which is counterproductive if you're going for full opposite lock type stuff.

 

Read the sticky at the top of the page for a ton of info on suspension, to include the Wonderbar and panhard.
