Hmmmm . . . . . Not good. Any sports or race car should give you warning before it lets go. Sudden snap oversteer is not a good thing.

Interesting that all the car magazine reports on the Ford GT never mentioned this idiosyncrasy. Either they never pushed the car that hard (they are expensive), or they were afraid they would alienate an advertiser.
