I concur that the throttle matching was probably the root cause. I listened through it and there was no change in engine sound at the time you moved to the shifter. A case of trailing throttle oversteer.

Happened to me once while I was turning so I exacurbated it by already being "off center".

Rev matching is hard on the Cobra (at least the CSX) because the throttle and brake are horizontally spaced to make it difficult in addition to being vertically offset. It was real easy to miss the throttle
