I stole this from a Corvette forum that I am on, it explains a lot. Understeer is hitting the wall with the front of the car - Oversteer is hitting the wall with the rear of the car - - Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall - - - Torque is how far you push wall

Why do I like racing ? Well the colors are bright and there is a lot of movement, so it holds my attention.

I've had my share of understeer issues! Apparently not enough torque, though, because the wall is still there.

I never went fast enough for any of these theories to kick in!
