I turned right and it came back around to the left again. The last time I couldn't catch it and she came around. Luckily I scrubbed some speed during that process. When I got spun backwards, I pushed the clutch in and it stopped spinning as I was parallel to the wall so I just went backwards in a straight line instead of in to the wall! I probably should have pushed the clutch in sooner. Forgot to do that.
My other fun car is a 870whp e46 turbo m3. I thought I was a decent driver and knew my limits. Cobra ownership is proving otherwise! Be careful out there kids.

NEVER go agressive into a situation that you are not familliar with or you can not see. the 90" wheelbase car will flip ends before you can react. I have extensive roadrace experience in a 110mph shifter kart. this happens on a kart on the track you spin out and for the most part nobody gets hurt or KILLED but when this happens on a cobra complete different ball game... careful man.
