    Re: Fast Porsches at the Texas mile event

    I was watching the Walter Rohrl driving video and saw something curious. Whenever he went into a right turn, the back end broke away and he had to quickly steer into the skid. Yet on left turns the back end didn't break away and there was no steering into the skid. Is that just a characteristic of the track? The car? The driver?

    Could be simply due to the drivers weight distribution and the effect on car balance...on left turns the drivers weight is on the inside of the turn
