Some cars are more explicit with its feedback on whats happening underneath, you feel you are breaking traction, usually through the steering wheel .... some cars are a bit numb you wont know until its totally too late..... those few seconds will mean the difference between stuffing yourself in the divider or not.... I speak with some authority.... very embarrasing.... went in too hot.... mid corner realised lost traction ..... panicked *blush* went off throttle, maybe even touched the brakes a tad .... felt the tail come around ..... tried to regain control probably several excruciating seconds after that but a little to late..... arms flailing counter steering left and right.... car did 360 i think and ended up facing wrong direction..... but managed to miss everything! just stopped in middle of road.... engine still running too <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> .... Lesson learnt..... dont day dream, especially if you intend to go fast. My 2 cents...</blockquote>
