Reminder of P-car Power

Just a reminder of oversteer! This is coming out of an intersection where I think the driver gunned it and spun into the ditch.

My Early 911 without the big rubber and more driver friendly suspension of that overturned car is very difficult to get sideways without my really trying. Just what was this guy doing when it happened?

I just saw them (for the 12th time) on the Snakes and Arrows tour. I caught a Peart drum stick Dove over the guard rail landed on my head and still came up with the stick! I realized I was old when I told co-workers that story and they said "whos Rush?".

Dont know what the driver was doing but looks like a nice 993 or 996 I couldnt tell.

Looks like a 993. If I were to hazard a guess, his kinematic toe might have been off (Or just really bad driver). My 95 was downright dangerous after I bought it. It snap oversteered on me shifting from 1st to 2nd on the street. Nothing I could do to recover it. Took it straight into the shop and after a proper alignment it's predictable as heck.
