@Gadgeteer, I don’t necesssrily agree with giving it more gas because the traction control system will govern the rear wheel speed. So the more gas you try to give it the more it’s going to try to govern the speed lower. You’re trying to make the rear wheel spin faster and it’s trying to slow it down. Because it’s already lost traction. Making it spin faster won’t help that.
True, if the rear is loose and the system is cutting power, there's nothing you can do to override. But if you're in a turn with the rear planted and your front is not, you can goose the throttle which creates body roll to push the outside wheel down, hopefully increasing traction. The sway bar and/or the outer shock (already under compression) will transmit some of that force back to the frame which pushes the inside wheel down, also increasing traction. It doesn't work for every oversteer situation, but it does work.
