well have you ever driven a car without ABS and a car with ABS?

say your comming into a turn too fast and you lock the brakes up too hard, youw ill do a little slide, but if you let off the brakes real quick you will be back to normal... now if you were wanting to induce some oversteer in this turn, this would be a better setup.

Now if you did the same thing with a ABS car you would probably stay in a straight line and not loose traction, you could turn while still on the brakes and it would pretty much be impossible to induce oversteer while using the brakes. There are plenty of other measures to make your car oversteer though so I guess it doesn't really matter. I personally like non ABS better and if you get in a hairy situation, you just need to know what to do and trust the car.

old ladies need ABS
