Hi All,

Does anyone know of a good reference for the physics of trailing throttle
oversteer?
(Not, of course, that any of us has ever experienced the phenomenon first
hand!) I'm
particularly interested in references that explain TTO in terms of polar
moment of
inertia, slip angle, tire sidewall flex, etc.

Thanks in advance.
