P3D+ Oversteer

Just wanted to know i others are experiencing significant oversteer when applying corner exit throttle. It's caught me by surprise a few times and it doesn't seem like the traction control catches it. I have to countersteer and it straightens out the car almost predictably but it's a little concerning nonetheless. This is on wet and even dry surfaces.

With track mode turned on, yes. Otherwise, i haven't seen that really at all. The traction control is super invasive IMO but maybe they've tweaked it in recent software updates...

Yeah I feel this. I think the car electronics are being overly invasive in a different way than gas cars. They seem to have more control and over compensating.

I have felt this, there's definitely an over steer on tap under hard corner exit throttle, especially in the wet. This is with track mode off and my intentionally pushing it to see how it performs when driven hard.
