I wonder if in a spin I should quickly release and reapply the brake when the car is sideways? Not the time that I want to be experimenting...
You know it might just be this --
I remember hydroplaning and heading backwards down 10-11 at COTA -- I wasn't slowing down despite what I thought was brakes to the floor. I then jumped on them again and quickly slowed down and rotated back around and got control of the car.

I figured it was just that I was hydroplaning (it was raining HARD!).

Will try to keep that in me mind when my Boxster rotates the next time.
