We've all seen videos of modern supercar drivers flooring it out of a junction / taking a turn too quickly, then fishtailing dramatically, then crashing into something.

In your experience of owning a modern supercar, what would one need to do in order to achieve this? Put another way, is this only really possibly if you either (a) turned all of the dynamic stability control / traction control off or (b) had those controls on but literally stamped the accelerator to the floor?

I can see how simple driver over-confidence could lead to someone binning a 90s Dodge Viper or something, but to put - say - a 4 wheel drive R8 or Hurracan into the wall seems like you'd have to be pretty dumb.

I think this sums up the drivers nicely.
