C4S? If so, yes. It may need to be induced with an abrupt countersteer

  • Turn off PASM
  • Accelerate to about 70 MPH
  • Turn sharply and apply brake
  • As rear wheels loose grip countersteer (this should get you some slide otherwise you will spin)
  • To bring back under control ease off brakes and ease on gas
Can be done at lower speeds on a skid pad! probably the best way to start
Do not attempt unless you are accoumpanied by an expert instructor, off public roads with lots of space and nobody else close enough to hit.

Am I going to do it on my own car – hell no!
Why buy a C4S if you want to do this?
For real oversteer get a 964!
Sorry it is early in the morning and I could not resist!
