^ i agree, he probably lift the throttle when he thought he was going to track out too much and go off. that's why i don't drive rear engine cars 
the guy in the red car shouldn't have went off track to avoid. he should have stayed on track and brake straight. he had plenty of room to brake. a car braking straight is going to stop quicker than a car sliding side way.
i was there that day and didn't here about it. i can see the quickdry in the octopus all the way to the pit, from the nasa event the week before.

You weren't there that day, fool, stop lyin! That was the Friday of the weekend we did with PCA. The one where Chu itched out.
Have you tried boost leak testing it?
IMO he either lifted off the gas with the wheel cranked too much or didn't get back on the gas fast enough to put the weight in the rear. Maybe he was afraid of running off to the left and kept the steering input to avoid running off. I'll watch it again tonight with sound and see if it makes a difference. either way the guy in the boxster must have **** a brick when the car hooked like that. VERY nice save!

Happened with me on my last track day with PCA. I was behind an older Porsche for about half the track. The guy gave me a point-by right around turn 3 but I waved it off. I followed him through and he spun going into turn 7(? -hard left before lightbulb) I was about 3 feet from his bumper going into the turn. I talked to the guy and his instructor afterwards, and thats the exact thing they said; saw me in the rear view and could only think of waving me by.
