I'm not saying you can't get a WRX sideways, just mentioning as you say, it's not that simple. To my way of thinking, each car/configuration has it's strengths and weakness, by driving to the strengths of your car you get the most out of it.

I.E I know my Supra will beat a lot of WRX's in the top end, but by the time I catch them off the launch we're doing 130kph++ - unsafe and unacceptable in the city/suburbs. I accept the fact I won't win between the traffic lights - but get it on the freeway and it's a different story. In tight and twisty corners it's another story again Smile

Getting back to the thread, it's obvious the car/driver pushed beyond their abilities in the situation at the time. Another driver, it may have been different, another car would have reacted differently and another time the driver might never have lost it. There's probably been a time for all of us where we've managed to pull it out of arse and avoid a crash Smile But luck rather than skill is the biggest factor sometimes!!!
