Gunned it mid corner cause the lady in front of me finally realized it was a green light in time for it to turn yellow.

Little bit surprised when the rear lost traction for a sec. Also surprised how easily handled it was.

Oh and here's a drifting Element for your time

I love this image.

Living in colorado, That happens alot in my moms CRV, I think it has a rear awd bias.

yeah I drive a 1999 crv and it just doesn't really have the power to do that except in the snow.

I tend to not treat my mothers like I would mine but I wouldn't be surprised if there was a bias cause that's something I've noticed about my old one. Lose traction a bit and it'll start throwing it to the rear

I live on a circle drive that always accumulates ice and snow on the hump in the winter. Its very difficult not to lose traction if your are going faster than 8mph there

Did you lift? Many times in a FWD based car that will do it. We think about oversteer as a power-on event. Most people who get caught out with oversteer, it's a lifting the throttle mid-corner event.

It's FWD-biased, rear diff only kicks in when front wheels lose traction. 2nd-gen CRVs had maximum 60/40 rear torque split I believe.

yeahh I did lift, it was sorta like a very exaggerated scandi flick. Used to love doing it in my old 'Si but it was just a little unexpected in the usually boring crv
