Jim, It comes down to the driver, but I prefer the car to have slight bit over steer on entry and somewhat neutral on exit. This makes the mid corner transition fast and you must stay on top of the car with neutral or lift throttle applications. The problem with understeer on a 911 is the transition to oversteer can be induced quickly with TTO. Think of slightly loss entry as driving with a little bit of room at the edge of the cliff to catch it as opposed to driving to the edge and maintaining it with little room for error. When you are exiting a turn, understeer with no room to track out is very unnerving and you end up being slow to avoid going off the track.
