You're quite mistaken.  Stock FWD cars breathe understeer.  In case you're
unclear on the terms, when you hit a turn and are the victim of
'understeer', that means that you keep going straight, even though you're
trying to turn.  Oversteer means you try to make a turn and your back end
comes out, whipping you around.  Perhaps that clears things up.
