ANY instructor knows you can NEVER/EVER tough a steering wheel if you are not driving! I don't care what or who the instructor is. It does prove though, that the human instinct is a strong thing :) Nice vid
Yeah dude you were way loose before he touched the wheel, but his hands just got in the way. You probably would have saved it if he wasn't messing around.
Looks like he was trying to counter-steer for you, but overdid it, since you were already turning into the skid. Classic "fish-tail" after the over correction. Glad he didn't make you wreck! :)
In "Porsche CaymanS chasing 993 on MSR 3.1". I also go too deep and try to get back to the apex, instead of just driving.
The funniest part is I was so focused on trying to save it, I never noticed his hands on the wheel, until I watched the video. But, when I said to him, "I don't understand that, I should have been able to save that one." He replied, "Lets talk about it later." When I watched the video, I understood why he didn't want to discuss it.
It's easy to be a Monday morning quarterback, but I agree the instructor made this worse. Unless there's a wall or other fixed object, I never touch the student's controls. It looks like you could have saved this one with the throttle until he grabbed the wheel.
