911 does exhibit some kart behavior for sure. You have to respect that rear end and don't do anything abrupt at corner entry. You can/must modulate the brakes of course. But sudden steering input with a sharp reduction in braking will have you chasing the tail for certain.

Agreed it's often a hard application of throttle to plant the rear end. A lot of newcomers just can't subscribe to that because they're so accustomed to:

1. Being able to brake and turn at the same time to gather the car.
2. Feathering the throttle on corner exit.

On these old torsion bar chassis cars, #1 is a big no-no for all but the most aggressively setup cars. Slow in, fast out is the key. People who charge the corners very deep, trying to catch the car in the process, are often just wasting their energy and tires.

#2 is just a hard habit for a lot of people to get away from since many are accustomed to feathering the throttle to avoid either stepping the rear end out (front engine, RWD car) or understeering (FWD car). You just have to know that putting that throttle down A LOT is what's needed to control that rear end with weight transfer. Once you start to figure it out, it's sorta comical and hard to come to terms with.

One other thing i've learned over the years is that you have to be very quick with your reactions. I used to try to catch the car with slow, gentle steering inputs when i'd feel the car start to change attitude. All that did for me is create nice long sliding spins. Going quickly, you really need to "get up on the wheel" as they say and have fast hands. The rear weight bias is not nearly as easy to catch as the front engine RWD cars most people are accustomed to.
