I believe that I was getting oversteer for three reasons;

1. I was overdriving the car which over-heated the rear tires resulting in less grip.

2. I was trail-braking into the turn and was not always smooth enough in my transition from brake to full throttle.

3. I was tired and sometimes took a crappy line into the corner.

My downshifting was fine along with alignment. What I need to work on is off-line driving at full speed with tons of pressure!
