The vehicle seems to behave very strangely. There's lift-off oversteer as though it were rear-engined, but also severe understeer when turning under full power as though it were a front engined truck. The brakes act like they lock up when you're in a high speed turn like there's no ABS, but then when you're going straight they very gradually slow the vehicle down as if there is ABS. All in all the unpredictability makes it very hard to drive the vehicle at very high speeds.


Sudden lift off oversteer does not only happen with rear engined cars though. I’ve certainly gone sideways on fwd econoboxes mid turn in autox by just closing the throttle.

Seems then that you’re driving a fwd car with a stiff rear suspension and a softer front
