It involves the deliberate loss
of rear wheel control, enabling drivers with the right combination

Arguably our favorite exercise involved circling the skidpad with no hands on the steering
wheel,
controlling the trajectory
of the
rear - drive 86 using only the throttle, a lesson in how power application influences a car's line and a precursor to some serious attempts at drifting — attempts that varied from semi-impressive to hilariously inept and had our entire crew in stitches as we observed each other's runs.
The new 911 GT2 combines elements
of the GT3 (lightweight components,

Mechanical grip is aided by a
rear - biased weight distribution (54 percent
of the F12's weight is on the
rear axle), a five - link
rear suspension (the 599 used

Sounds like you need to look at the
rear bushing
of the front
wheel control arms.
This however does not hold true for
rear wheel drive vehicles which can have a strong weight transfer (high, soft - suspension cars, as most US vehicles), as the added braking force on the
rear wheels without added (weight - transfer caused) friction could cause
wheel lockup and possibly loss
of control of the vehicle.
It's got a bunch

With warm tires and on dry blacktop, take - off often is a brief and shrill shouting match, but as soon as the first raindrops fall, the chip -
controlled guardian angels work overtime by means
of diligent torque distribution (between the
rear wheels) and cautiously dosed torque vectoring (by momentarily decelerating those two
wheels that are closest to the apex).
In this mode, the electronically
controlled Haldex clutch sends a portion
of the torque to the
rear wheels in direct response to the initial turn - in action, thereby providing better balance through the bend.
We've already mentioned
rear wheel steering, but also
of note is the Panamera's PASM action suspension management, enhanced PDCC chassis

rear wheel individually,
controlled electronically depending on cornering and traction requirements.
Theoretically, the Aventador's four -

On board are a new, second - gen version
of Ferrari's «virtual short wheelbase» (a.k.a.,
rear -
wheel steering), a fifth - gen edition
of the maker's side - slip
control, and Ferrari's first - ever use
of electronic power steering.
It rides on 20 - inch
wheels, packs a 4.4 - liter V - 8 good for 530 hp and 553 lb - ft
of torque, sends its power to all four
wheels via a ZF eight - speed automatic, and offers an electronically
controlled differential,
rear steering, and continuously variable dampers.
Even more problematic, maximum twist now commences at a mere 2,300 rpm and doesn't abate for another 2,000 rpm, requiring tighter orchestration
of throttle tip - in, transmission slip, traction
control, and
rear wheel grip while executing that quick, hard left turn from a standstill.
There's even a degree
of control once the tyres have lost grip; the revs don't flare instantly and the
rear wheels continue to thrust you forward as they claw away at the tarmac.
The 2016 Mercedes - AMG GT S comes with an electronically
controlled limited - slip differential, wherein computers precisely
control the amount
of torque going to each
rear wheel.
Don't worry, there's all manner
of go - fast hardware to keep it safe, including standard carbon ceramic brakes, aggressive aero,
rear -
wheel steering, and specialized traction and stability
control.
It shares the regular X6's Dynamic Performance
Control rear differential, which can borrow up to about 1300 lb - ft
of torque from one
rear wheel and send it to the other.
A snapshot
of what's different about the BRZ: updated front end with LED headlights and fog lamps; LED taillights; new
wheels; new fender accent, new aluminum
rear spoiler, new steering
wheel, updated gauge cluster with a color multi-function display, retuned suspension, reworked engine internals and accessories that add 5 horsepower and 5 lb - ft
of torque to the 2.0 - liter flat - four, a new final - drive ratio for manual models (4.3:1 vs. 4.1:1 for 2016), a stiffer body, and less aggressive stability
control that includes a new Track mode.
A master
of options, Audi also offers different steering
wheel designs — one with a flat bottom, like the firm's sportier models — Nappa leather trim, four - zone climate
control in the
rear and more.
However if you're used to the way a
rear -
wheel drive car looses grip under power, performing a slide with Drift Mode on takes some getting used to — instead
of backing off the throttle slightly to regain some
control, maintaining full throttle doesn't feel very natural.
Clearly, the VW's fat
rear antiroll bar and clever use
of ABS to
control wheel spin exiting corners — the big advancements on the sixth - gen model — are paying off.
It makes use
of an electronic, multiplate clutch to shift torque between the front to
rear axles as necessary, and BMW's Performance
Control system directs power to the outside
rear wheel during cornering.
All
of this, including the
rear -
wheel steering — which offers + / - 3 degrees
of movement and gives the effect
of shortening the Urus's long three - metre wheelbase by up to 600 mm — is
controlled by the Tamburo, a collection
of stylised levers and switches at the base
of the centre console.
In the dry, the FF behaves more like a
rear -
wheel - drive car: Leave traction and stability
control engaged — don't worry, they allow a fair amount
of slip — and the
rear end wags and drifts on the power, smoothly under
control.
With a significant input into the steering
wheel and a lift
of the throttle you can force the
rear tyres to relinquish their grip
of the road, but so swiftly is it caught by the stability
control (even with the traction
control in sport handling mode) and so mighty is the E43's traction when you get back on the throttle that there's little incentive to try and play.
Other mechanical highlights include three - mode ProActive Chassis
Control active suspension, an enhanced version
of the AirBrake
rear wing used on the 12C and P1, and Pirelli P - Zero Corsa tires wrapped around new lightweight alloy
wheels.
With over steer in a
rear wheel drive you can
control the amount
of turn in with the throttle.
That doesn't get you much in terms
of features, but it does include 17 - inch alloy
wheels, tinted
rear windows, remote entry, cruise
control, a tilt / telescoping steering
wheel and two 12 - volt power outlets.
The all -
wheel - drive system uses electronically
controlled clutches in the
rear differential to send up to 50 percent
of the torque to the
rear wheels.

Much
of that promised agility is provided by the new largely aluminium MSB platform that will also underpin future Bentleys, but also the systems that Porsche has applied to it — namely
rear -
wheel steering and the new electrically - powered Porsche Dynamic Chassis
Control roll - control
Control roll -

Two planetary gear sets operated by two computer -
