Countersteering isn't working as we have sadly seen at the shelby example...
Braking also isn't working...see M4 reference...
Maybe trying to do an 360 ( handbrake ), instead of trying to go straight?
Take foot of brakes and gas, countersteer. These guys overreact with too much gas, shelby which kicked rear out, or brakes, which were applied to late, m4, so car pivoted on front passenger tire which was taking all the load.

Falls into it can't do two things at once. If they weren't braking or acceleration, the tires would have, wait for it, been able to steer.
