On uphills and downhills? I take it you spin going up as the back comes round? Got to be really careful and precise. You might need to start predicting the oversteer and countersteer gently into it before ot occurs.
^^This ^^
I just needed more practice I'm starting to learn when the car is about to spin, the second gear is dangerous you need to be really careful on the throttle. I just need to drive smooth watch the throttle and balance transfer I managed 3rd place spun out on the last lap went form 1st to 5th

Happens, concentration break. Bad corner, spin off. Cry and repeat
when I used a pad at my best I couldcontrol the power with the x button using the 256 degrees of pressure. When not 100% I would tap x to keep revs up and the lsd to pull you a round. I can't use analogue:/
Also let the car roll unpwered around some corners and ease onto the power once you can see the way out onto the next straight. I generally pulse power on and off mid corner till the nose points in and then progressively add more power until it's too much and the car under or oversteer then pulse off and back on again.

The s2000 is definitely a fast car. Got pistol whipped by one online, big time.
It's probably got better handling and has less torque than a turbo car so less likely to spin mid corner or on exit as you put the throttle on.
I found the rx7 efini 91 premium at 450 to 500 pp has really good handling with some suspension mods.

Got this for Christmas and played it for the first time today. Quite disappointed tbh, supposed to be a driving simulator yet you have to slow down to a virtual stop to get round corners that I'd easily be able to take at a descent speed in my delivery van! And what's with all the tyre screeching? Ended up turning it off in frustration at not being able to get 1st place on the 2nd race in the amateur cup 
Pad? I've only had something like that on the Ascari track. 1st gear left hand corner.

Probably using comfort tyres. 
Had a good session on Brands Hatch the other night, got quite few laps down in the HPA R32. It's easily my favourite car, very grippy but you can kick the back end out if you start running wide and just drift around. I managed to hold the fastest lap times in the room for a very long time, fending off much more powerful and exotic cars until everybody started using the Formula 1 and LMP cars. It's very entertaining watching people underestimate some of the less known tuned up cars, and then see them fly wide off the track trying to keep up
Also got a few snaps from GT5 & GT6.

I retuned the car and used it for my night monster cup, 450pp suits the RX-6 efini perfectly.

If any of you still play GT5 - they are shutting the servers down for it on 20 May 2014

Just got this. Before I install, I've seen some chat about there being some problems with this game and original 'Fat' PS3 units. Anyone here had any problems with this?
Runs fine on both my phats- it was GtaV that killed them
In fact I don think I've heard the fans go above idle while playing GT6.
I don't understand why they would do this GT5 was of sonys best selling games... I guess they want to force people to buy GT6... greed

You have much to learn about PD
If they were greedy they'd be releasing a minor GT sequal every year and shutting the servers down.
GT5 has been out 3yrs now if people aren't prepared to upgrade for £35 then they're just being tight.
