The older supra (although not completely relevant to this msg) very much went in a straight line when the rear-end was provoked. They have bad body-roll and with a fully slipping diff, all the traction to the inside wheel (the one which follows a smaller radius) is lost and hence the car's rear end doesn't push the car into the corner so much as push it out. On top of this, the bump on the rear shocks is weak, and hence the front end can lift and lose grip and put the car in even more of a straight line, and even a bit of waggle. The car will lose the back end out, but it won't push the car neatly into and through the corner.

OF COURSE, all this can be changed with some decent suspension Smile
Unlike the standard stuff.
