    It is you. So what's your opinion of why you're spinning? That's what's important.

      On the occasions at turn 4 and at RA, both times I walked away feeling I had been too generous with the throttle too soon on the switch back...that caused the initial step out. After that, fighting the reaction to let off coupled with slow on the open snap of the steering wheel to catch the step...causes the 180. I feel that I need to try and snap the steering wheel quicker while not letting off the throttle to remedy this. Just working on the fortitude. 😅👍

      @@MotoRX1 Well there's your issue. If the rear is sliding in an RWD car adding throttle will only make the situation worse. Lift and countersteer.

    I was just driving on that track a few days ago. I was in an older Mustang and there were a bunch of Miatas there tearing up the track. I was surprised when some of them passed me. Must be you or you setup. Those things look like they handle well.

      99% of the time it handles great! Pushing limits...sometimes I find them. 😆

      @@MotoRX1 how do you like jzilla? I haven't ridden with them yet. I have heard they aren't as good of a group as Chin. Chin is really difficult to get a track day with, but they don't allow a bunch of cars on the track & they have great instructors.

      JZilla is my fam! I started with them in September 2020, and I try to track with them every month. If I can't snag a JZilla day, I will defer to Atlanta Driving Society as my 2nd option. After that, it's wherever I can get a track day. 👍

    I'm not sure if it's "just you". That looks like some mean snap oversteer.

      Each time I felt I had been too generous with the throttle on the switchback. The car sticks so hard almost all the time. Could be something in the suspension setup maybe? 🤔

      @@MotoRX1 Ironically, it might be the fact that your tires are so sticky. If you have special tires that can generate very high g forces, when they finally do let go, there is a lot of momentum that is hard to rein in.

    Traction control on or off?

      Traction Off when tracking. 👍
