The usual cause is, boost comes in late (due to lag) and stays longer than 
you need (turbines don't instantly slow just 'cause you back out of the 
throttle). if you're used to driving a normally aspirated car, the extra power late in 
a curve will put you backward into a guard rail very easily. One of my 
friends that restores Porsches says that one of the hardest things to find is an 
original 930 with a perfect rear bumper.... FWIW- J DEryke
