Looks like the chute setup was poorly designed - when the backend gets light you spin. Driving 101.

Last time around, the car spun w/out the chute even attached. Something is wrong with the brake setup on that specific car, and hasn't been addressed. My primary guess is it is the man behind the wheel stepping on the brakes that is the problem...


Personally, I wouldn't do anything with UGR... but I've said as much before.

I remember that video now.

Do you know if they have bypassed or altered the ABS/TC/AH setup?

In many cars with ABS managed brake balance, tinkering with the AH/TC via software maniptulaiton, fuses or bypasses totally fucks the ABS managed brake bias and the rears lockup when you just look at the brake pedal.

I couldn't begin to guess. huge turbo systems that remove bits of the rear frame assy. may have something to do with massive chassis flexing under braking, or the abs system was never intended for stops above 240 mph LOL. What's even crazier... the video I linked of the owner losing control while braking... was the first time he'd ever driven the car with the turbos!

I think the car still has the stock wheels, which on these kinds of cars, is a very important thing for wheel sensors/abs/tcs etc.
