Just to add my .02. You will not have to counter steer as much or as hardcore as the s chassis because the front will pull you through. If you counter steer too much the car will flick itself hard in the opposite direction. I'm exaggerating a bit but you get the idea.

+1. Samething for me .

If you watch older videos of TopGear; they talk about how evo's are torque vectoring, Ability to send almost 100% of torque to slipping wheel...tripod mode in the air..

Second time; turning on a slick rainy surface again, like an idiot, I lifted and the car spun a perfect 360.

Same exact thing happened to me, perfect 360 in the rain. Bad outcome though
