Loss of traction in the rear wheels of a vehicle is called spinning, sliding, drifting... In NASCAR terms, loose.
What is drive wheel?
All wheel drive is automatic:no driver interaction is needed.The system senses a loss of traction and redirects available engine torque to the wheels that have the most traction and away from the wheels that are slipping.
What is all-wheel drive?
All wheel drive is automatic:no driver interaction is needed.The system senses a loss of traction and redirects available engine torque to the wheels that have the most traction and away from the wheels that are slipping.
What is front wheel traction loss called?
There are several words for wheels losing traction; spinning, sliding, drifting, breaking free... If it happens to the front wheels while cornering it'll cause understeer = the car will continue straight forward despite the driver trying to turn.
What does it mean when the TC light is on in your Land Rover?
TC (short for Traction Control) is designed to prevent loss of traction of the driven road wheels, and therefore maintain the control of the vehicle when excessive throttle is applied by the driver and the condition of the road surface (due to varying factors) is unable to cope with the torque applied. You may have turned it off and it is showing you that its off or you may have a faulty TC.
What is tcs in a car?
TCS stands for Traction Control System; this reduces loss of traction (when cornering, for instance), usually by adjusting the throttle and shunting power from the slipping wheels to those with grip. It can be known by several different names depending upon the manufacturer.
What cause's the car to fish tail?
Loss of traction. The loss of traction can come from braking too quickly. Or accelerating to quickly
How do cars drifts?
Drifting is simply a controlled loss of traction on the back wheels. Basically, when the wheels spin really fast, the tire is shredded before it can grip the road. So eventually someone got good at controlling it, and drifting was born.

What does the slip indicator light mean on a 2003 Lexus SC430?
In general, if you see this light come on while driving a car with traction control, it means that the system has detected a loss of traction on one or more wheels. The traction control system will engage to correct it. Usually it only lights up briefly. If that light stays on all the time, there's something wrong with the sensor or the electrical connection to the light.
In which sport is drifting used?
Drifting is mostly used in motorsports. Drifting is type of driving technique where a driver over steers the wheel intentionally in order to cause a loss of traction in the rear wheels and slide along a road or track.
What is the difference between a tire balance and a tire alingnment?
Tire balance = adding weights to the outside of the tire (look closely you will see them) so it does not wobble from centrifugal force while driving. Tire alignment = making sure both wheels are properly calibrated (i.e. same angle while turning) so they are lined up. This reduces wear on the tires. It can be dangerous if the wheels are poorly aligned, loss of traction could result.
