Under-steer is when the front of the car hits the wall, and over-steer is when the rear of the car hits the wall.
Power is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how much of the wall you take with you.

Wondered what the van was breaking for. On second viewing, only then spotted a car coming on, or something like...?

I ain't watching it again to check.
