I'm sure other autoxers and track junkies can back me up. when a spin happens to someone without car control it's instaneous . for someone who has experienced it many times in a controlled environment (such as autox) it's slowed down.
just like top baseball hitters see the baseball in slow motion or see it as a size of a softball. performance driving experience pays off in real world driving.
again i'm not criticizing anyone with the above comment. I'm giving facts. Drive safely.

Most people will turn their wheel in one direction and hope for the best, where as autox or such would continue to control the car in a spin to try an stay in a straight lane. Cause once you're out of that spin, you will start moving quickly in one direction, and you don't want that direction to be toward the side of the road.
