As stock the PV has a pretty good weight balance - the rear wheels being pulled forward far enough to balance out the engine up front.

That being said, mine can get a little lively on damp pavement. Not having a limited slip diff limits the oversteering fun - you have to do a quick double feint to get the rear end to break and go into a nice lurid power slide around a corner.
