Ya, but at least you have that experience with the oversteer so you know what it feels like and it won't scare the crap out of you as much again.

Before i did that in my mr2 i'd only ever ripped the e-brake in fwd cars, and done it in video games, and that doesn't really prepare you for it, because when your car actually starts to oversteer by itself (not just when you want it to) it's a whole different thing, as you found out

Oh and i only really ripped the e-brake in winter (on snow), so that is even more unlike real oversteer.

Is the previa actually mid engine rear wheel drive? I'm going to google that, is the engine under the rear seats or something? Also, WTF?
