Never ever do it in wet weather. Almost crashed while in MDM. Thought it would be fun to drift a bit but it did exactly what you went through. Somehow got out of it and my buddy behind me thought I had completely maneuvered it like that on purpose lol. There's no doubt it allows for a higher threshold of maneuverability, but if you're not used to it or haven't had the chance to explore its potential in a safe place id recommend to only use it in a straight line since it allows a bit more power down. It's weird but it's the first BMW I'd compare to a tail happy e55 amg and e63 amg. AWD for the future?
