After trying to beat the pro spider and roadster with my cobra. After realsing I couldn't win one of the race I decided to play around in the car. Holding the break and reving the engine for about half a minute the Cobra suddenly begain spining around in a circle.
To try ro describe it i was rotating the car in a very tight circle faster than I have done on a rally coarse after realizing I could not win.
My cobra was fully tunned with both driver assistants turned on. I'm not sure what I did to cause it (ie truning the wheel letting off the break). Has any one else experinced this?
 
Maybe I'm not gettings something here, but...

Revving the engine WHILE holding down the brakes? How is that possible? (I don't have a wheel so if you can do it that way I wouldn't know.)

Or are you talking about the emergency brake?
 
Sometimes if i hit a wall with an F1, this happens. There are a few seconds where i can't move, then it just spins around. Only happened to me about three times (2 in Laguna Seca).

ceiling_fan,

Haha! I'd never seen you around before (bit slow, me!) Love the name. I'm guessing that it's a play on my rather weak username, or am I being too conceited? Funny!

My only guess is if you went in and changed the toe angle and such is you managed to get it to oversteer and it became very touchy.

Known bug. Covered before. Blah blah blah.

Usually it's seen after crashing in an MR car though.
 
Yeah, but the Cobra is small and has a huge amount of power. At least when stock it does. And 7xx HP ain't bad...

Pfft! Who am I kidding! 7xx HP is awesome! :cool:
