That's kind of what I was wondering. Makes sense to set up a drift car with an oversteer tendency - either less tire grip in the rear, or a whole lot more spring rate in the rear. At which point, a steer input would turn it sideways easily.

Only problem is, it would be unstable in a straight line leading up to the intiation point.

Most of the drift cars I see have wider rear tires, which tells me that not many of them are set up this way?
