I'm sorry but that was

 

Reminder to self: don't lift!

 

Wow, they will never learn. 1. Too fast for public street. 2. Goosed it mid corner 3. Lifted when the "holy crap she's loose" feeling kicked in. 4. Should have stayed on the gas and corrected if stupid enough to drive that way in traffic. Conclusion: DUMBARSE got what they deserved. Comedy!!!!!!

 

The first rule of 911 is to never lift.......... the second rule of 911 is to never talk about it or don't get filmed if you did.

This was classic.

 

+1^^^^^^^^ Epic mistake driving a P-car.

 

Epic mistake letting that guy "test" drive the car! LOL

 

PSM Stability control had to have been off. I don't see how it could've gone so wrong at this speed.

 

I believe PSM only continues working if you keep your foot in the accelerator, if you fully come off the accelerator it stops working.

 

Possible donor engine for all those poor GT3s still at the dealer.....like mine.....

Always look on the bright side of life ------

 

PSM or not (even with AWD!), it seems like these type of drivers manage to always surprise us…

 

I maybe wrong but I don't think the 997.1 GT3s have PSM?

 

Mine doesn't

 

Can someone please clarify the physics why this happens. These guys are lifting throttle mid corner or braking rather than accelerating thru the turn. Is this because of the rear engine sliding out, Thanks Go

 

Some may have a more technical answer but here is mine:

Weight transfers from a rear bias to the front during the lift (along with driver panicking and probably turning the wheel too hard in the opposite direction to compensate) causing the front tires to bite. The inertia of the car is reversed and magnified as the front hooks up and turns the car in the opposite direction of the slide and the rear swings around to follow. Braking makes it worse, magnifying the forces involved.
