Your slalom information is wrong; odd=same side, even=different. FWD is always bad; you don't want the same wheels trying to steer and brake and accelerate at the same time. It doesn't work. FWD = understeer. RWD = oversteer = . AWD = traction.

Slow hands are smooth hands. With slow hands you are starting the turn early and very gradually which means you use the biggest arc and therefore can carry more speed. Most people just come bombing up to a turn, stand on the brakes, snatch the wheel over which scrubs off too much speed and they can't drive a consistent line. FWD cars win a lot of races. Some of them oversteer, some understeer and most do both at some time or the other. Same for RWD. It all comes down to the technique your car takes. My LeCar had trailing throttle oversteer. Worked great for autox, would scare the crap out of you roadracing. |
