Granted, this is just cut and paste from wiki, but this better states what I was trying to express:

"Mid engined cars are more dangerous than front-engined cars if the driver loses control - although this may be initially harder to provoke due to the superior balance - and the car begins to spin. The moment of inertia about the center of gravity is low due to the concentration of mass between the axles (similar to standing in the middle of a playground roundabout, rather than at the edge) and the spin will occur suddenly, the car will rotate faster and it will be harder to recover from. Conversely, a front-engined car is more likely to break away in a progressive and controllable manner as the tires lose traction."

I could not in the cobra and cannot in the gt do a straight line burnout. The rear end always wanted/wants to come around. Donuts all day long but won't go straight
