[DeTomaso] Pantera Design Question

[Gray Gregory]

Goran,

The common definition of over-steer (also referred to as loose) is when the rear loses grip and the back end begins to slide. The effect of this is that the car turns more than was desired thus the term "over-steer". Under steer (also called push) would be just the opposite; the front end loses grip and the car does not turn in proportion to the amount of steering input that is being applied. The effect being that the car turns less than desired therefore the term "under steer".

As the therm "over-understeer" is used, what does moost of  you folks mean 
by that?
I got the feeling we are not using the word for describing  same type 
behaviour of the car.
