My track experience (and Clois can attest!) is that if/when that rear end breaks loose, it's gone. Before you can say uh-oh, you're staring at the car that was just in your rear view mirror.
But those moments right before that, when the tires are warm, the car's tracking and setting up well, you're getting mashed so hard from side to side that you're queasy, man are those awesome! I'm totally addicted!
I'm glad someone mentioned an M3. It was very frustrating for me that a Miata or an M3 (et. al.) would catch me so quickly in the corners. I could pass them back on the straights, but within 3 turns, I had a rear view mirror full of them again.
Probably driving ability, or lack thereof, in my case. But I've heard others with similar experiences.
