WHy do you think dirt track motorcycle racers do so well on the WSB circuit or on the salt, they know they are still in control when they are sliding. The rest of us don't. I watched a video in which The Doctor (Rossi) tucked the front wheel on his bike and actually used his elbow and knee to get the bike back on traction. I don't know how those guys get their attachments in their leathers.
Another great slider was Jeremy McWilliams. Watched him step teh rear out about 5-7 degrees with the front tire in the air about 4" on final corner for 5 consecutive laps. Next race, everyone was using his tire choice.
I understand you are talking cars, but we people that live on ice 4 months a year realize how difficult it is to teach yourself to overcome the bodies natural response to your inner ear gyro pointing out that you are just unhooked and are getting out of shape.
. We could all learn some valuable skills from drifting instead of hamfisting into the slide and piling on the brakes.
