First off wow, the guy driving the Porsche at about 7:40 in that video... If it ain't broke enough, keep driving it so it brakes more! That must have been a police chase.

Anyhow, I spun my Boxster at my first DE at Thunderhill. I was entering a sharp left turn and downshifted too early into 2nd gear. Traction broke and the whole car went for a spin. No damage and no harm thankfully, but I certainly learned where the limit is on how hard one can turn in these cars. This was about three months into owning my Boxster.

I recommend taking it to a safer track list Thunderhill where there is nothing but green on most sides of the track, rather than Sear's Point where there are lots of tires and guard walls to slam into. AX is another great option for learning the ropes on your P-car.
