  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Let me guess, traction/stability off?

Doesn't appear so. Just too much entry speed into the corner and the car begins to understeer. You can see at the apex he still has his front wheels turned into the inside, but the car continues to slide outwards in what looks like an AWD drift. These are good handling cars, but their limits are not Porsche or Corvette-like.

You are probably right, I didn't notice the wheels turned inside when viewing on my phone. Also the pre 2019 G70s in Korea didn't have mechanical LSD on any of their trims and that would've helped here.
 
Video should be called "Poor Driver Wrecks G70".

:rolleyes:

A limited slip diff wouldn't have done shit here. Too much speed for the corner, plain and simple. Also notice he never hit the brakes.
