corner with full acceleration

[closed road situation] If you make a right turn with VDC off and full throttle, does your car spin out? (unless I counter my steering wheel) I don't think it

[closed road situation]

If you make a right turn with VDC off and full throttle, does your car spin out? (unless I counter my steering wheel)
I don't think it did when my car was a complete stock. But after changing rims and tires, the car feels really unstable.

I've got even sticky tires than stock (Re-11 265/305) and ran a couple of test when it was 80F outside.

Is it time to get LSD? lol.

No kidding. Of course it will. Smooth application of power for fast a controlled exit.

If you can't handle a situation like that you shouldn't be doing it.

Any time you over power the rear tires while cornering the back end is going to slide. It's simple physics...

Yes, that's why I am practicing at a closed road.

You can't learn to drive from a book...but...pick up Secrets of Solo Racing by Henry Watts. The book covers everything from “What is an apex?” to proper lines through various types of corners and the physics behind it all.

A lot of people don't understand what that means for handling dynamics, though.

Then again, a lot of people don't even know whether their car is front or rear wheel drive to begin with. Like when I saw a guy putting snow chains on the rear wheels of his Corolla...

Even worse if it was front wheel drive. Uncontrollable torque steer would occur and most likely you'll end up in a wreck. Lol
