You press the accelerator, the front unloads, the tires start slipping. It's possible RWD would behave better simply because the rear motor would push the tail out resulting in more neutral behavior.

Thanks for the candid feedback. That's our experience too test driving a Performance demo, it felt like FWD torque steering at corners! The RWD LR does not seem to exhibit as much drama.
Also thanks for the weight distribution numbers, which are quite hard to find on Tesla website/online.
