question, would you have had an easier time putting it into overstear if you had it in a lower gear or just had the RPM's higher by another 1000 or so? put you up a little farther in the power band to get the rear wheels more responsive....? I realize its not about actual rate of forward directional speed, as i've seen guys drifting around corners, almost as if in slow motion. I recall it bieng easier to put it into a skid when the tach had a higher reading versus lower one....

Put it into 2nd at around 20-25 mph (when you are just about to understeer) and blip the throttle and it'll throw you out.
