On a public road you shouldn't be getting to that state anyway
though
... Do you not agree?

No you shouldn’t
but when you’ve got 340 bhp at the back wheel, it is easily done
pulling
out of a side turning (It was even easier in the V8 Vantage with 600 bhp
and cr*p
traction control J). Knowing how to correct for it isn’t
necessarily a bad idea, and a few hundred quid for 2 hours on a track is
something I’ll really enjoy. Before I spent my entire life seated I
used
to lead a pretty active life, and I’m trying to re-gain some of that
at
the moment.
