Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

honestly it only needs a quick repaint on parts of the car. Me and the roomie will probably do most of the prep work on it. But interior comes first.

Well thanks to Ryan Brett and Eric we got her running tonight. She has some tuning issues to take care of and needs a massive cleaning plus a lot of work. But she fired and ran on her own.

Heres a short video with a small rev (she needs to be timed and didnt want to rev the motor hard after sitting for a while)
