Why did that happen? I have Pilot Super sports 275/35 on the rears and I was going in a straight line under WOT, then around the 4000RPM mark it almost felt like someone grabbed my steering wheel and threw it to the right and then to the left!! There was no gradual loss of control sliding etc, it just happend so suddenly out of nowhere.
Anyone else experience this before?

Yep, once in my 1985 trans am NA V8 305, not much HP but i had upgraded gears in the diff, once both wheels loose traction you're so ******. Between gear changes is most dangerous, also small changes in steering will throw power off to one side and if both wheels dont have traction at that moment you're ******, you're much safer with open diff. you need to take the car to the track to practice WOT pulls so you know what the car will do.
