Limits are very high! I pushed as hard as I felt comfortable (which is pretty hard) on dry pavement and did not lose grip even once.
The only understeer I experienced was on the 'ring on corners with practically no grip. As it turns out, I carried way too much speed into those corners and in those cases, the front washed wide without a hint of rear end movement. Based on that, I'd expect the car to understeer on a dry track if you carry too much speed into the corners.
