the reality of it is....

the diff..

simple as that..funk is a great driver..but the lack of having a real diff makes it a bit harder at grip runs

Sure, but there isnt loose dirt on the nur... Also, the factory isnt purpousefuly putting their cars sideways and keeping it there, or welding their diffs, or putting on different suspension and staggered tires, sure they test them to recover but the cars arent ment to "drift and drift alone" If that was the case we wouldnt have to modify the car at all.

No major mass-produced factory car is made to drift, or even to do serious motorsports straight out of the box. Even the Z06 or 360 challange stradale has loads of testing to keep bumbleheads from killing themselves, electronic or hardware tuning.

Why wouldn't there be? Who's there to clean off the 13 miles of the Nordschleiffe? It's in the mountains you know, and there isn't someone working every turn.

The 360 Challenge is a bad example. I could see someone getting into loads of trouble with one. The traction and stability control is there, but it is not that intrusive. The F430 would be a better example because of Ferrari's new "Manetino" traction control switch on the steering wheel.
