I know how to drive a car by feel and have driven RWD cars before - I nearly stacked my sister's MG in Australia going too hard around a corner, the back started to slide out and it started to oversteer, so I had to give it more gas, turn the wheel the other way and basically get it back on the right line. It was a mid engine though (the engine was behind my head) and really easy to handle, and of course there was no ice or snow. I wouldn't be too keen on doing that on ice or snow (even if the road's been partially treated - they're not the best at treating roads in a timely fashion here).
My other cars have all been front drivers (Honda Integra Type R and Alfa) which tend more to understeer. My car right now (VW Jetta VR6) is FWD with ABS and traction control.
Did I ever give you a lift when you were in Boston btw?
