Hi Car Guy 11!
Thanks for the video, enjoyed it.
So, this does not appear to be from the PDR. Would you provide some insight on what you used to pull your video together...
Thanks.

Cool, glad you liked it, hope you check out rest of channel! Yeah I don't have PDR so use Track Addict app on my iPhone inside and do a split view with my outside Sony action cam. Also the app is connected to OBD for speed, RPM, etc.

Well....that's what ya' git fer turnin' off all the nannies!!!
J/K!!
I was running in Sport 1 recently and spun out. So....you sure can spin out even with the Active Handling on in Sport 1!
You've got to find out where the limits are!!
And it's always best if you can do it like you and I did - without banging into something!

Wow good to know it can still spin on Sport 1! I did my first run on Sport 1 and felt it kick in but was learning course so wasn't pushing it as much.

I used to autocross back in my C4 days. I spun out more than I'd like to admit, and never did really well on the tight tracks that were laid-out by the Miata guys.
Thanks for sharing your fun!

Did you read that suspension alignment thread to make that snap spin less likely? The one requiring +0.8 caster in the rear?

Been there, done that, more than once.
The torque these cars have makes this easy to do.
