He probably turned the wheel a little bit, at that speed it'd make the car want to twist off of the Dyno.

His problem........ SLaming on the brakes while he was oversteering (Fishtail). Stupid Stupid Stupid. Instant spin. He probably also Lifted off the gass too, thats anoter NO NO. As soon as he did that, more weight got transfered to the front (Engine braking) and the rear lost even more traction, whoops......
THis is also dismissing any suspension problems that may have been present (Cut springs, Blown/weak shockabsorbers or mis-tuned shockabsorbers ect....)

Of course they don't teach you that stuff in drivers ed.
Autocross, it may save you and your cars A$$ some day.

no such thing. sure there can be an *** load of power, or more power than a person can handle, but not too much.

The skyline doesnt put out 700 hp stock. And you say theydont sell fun cars in the us? the viper puts out 500 hp! the zo6 around 415! If your equating powerto fun (as that statement appears to), then those cars must qualify.

The wheels DO turn just after it lurches forward. . . . the power got it up onto the front rollers more, but the turning of the wheels made it want to walk.

Holy crap. . Most high horsepower cars try to walk . . Anyone seen that Supra one before? That thing almost took off too. I have it saved on 1 of my computers somewhere. I'll have to try and find it.

True . Watch it again. You see the wheel turn slightly, then the car almost jumps off there. Either the power isn't going to the wheels evenly or the driver made a boo boo...

All I know for sure is, MY car never wanted to do any of that when I dyno tested it! All it did was take forever and a day to get to redline in 4th gear!
