Cheers,

I was not able to comment in Your blog, so I will do it here, and at the same time say that everyone that hasnt should read Mr Warmbolds blog!

Interesting read: In the classic case of understeer on entry, and oversteer on exit, 9 times out of 10 it is the driver him self that is creating his own difficulties. This is by going too fast and too tight on the entry. The inside corner is sharper than the outside one, and too fast is always too fast. This will create understeer. The oversteer comes from the inputs the driver does to correct the understeer. Slowing down the front, making a big weight transfer towards the front, while wanting the front of the car to change direction. As soon as the front starts changing direction, the rear will continue in the same direction, because of the lack of grip created by the exessive speed/weight transfer, and this will result in oversteer.
The remedy would be to be earlier on the brakes, turn in later with a wider line, and be earlier on the throttle, so you get on the throttle side on the diff. This You should do before You start adjusting things on Your car, because You should adjust it after when You are doing it right, not compensating for problems You make Your self

Thanks for the blog, a very good read!
