Sounds like you can only highside at the track when applying too much throttle when exiting a corner..

I've seen some big highsides on the track. I've never seen one on the street. I know a couple of friends who've highsided at the Gap but I wasn't there to witness. I myself have never highsided.

I wanted to see what similarities there might have been if any.
