Anyone else having a problem with the back end coming lose on a 1st to 2nd **** as well as 2nd to 3rd shift. Was having a little fun the other day with an M5 (not racing just following behind him at a spirited pace) the other day and it was 53 out. Tires were somewhat warm as I had just driven for 25min parked for about 30min and had been driving for about 10min. I know not to launch the car as as I only get wheel hop but when I shifted into 2nd the back end popped sideways a little until the VDC kicked in. Did it again going from 2nd to 3rd but not as much. I was at WOT but shifting at about 6krpm. Car is stock other than a FI exhaust.
I just have very little confidence in this car unless it's summer. Roads here aren't the best and going over bumps at speed causes the VDC light to kick on. I'm worried one of these days I'll spin out just from the road not being smooth. Our old C6 corvette was similar but quite a bit more stable (with stock runflats)
