Thanks everyone.

So just to clarify, a degree of visible tyre side-slip is OK?

I kinda liken it to applying a bit of opposite steering when power-sliding a car around a corner; on one hand the vehicle is still under control, but on the other, the very fact that tyres are slipping does indicate that it's reached a "new level" when compared to normal cornering.

Just wanting opinions on whether that is considered "OK" from a heavy metal point of view? (in an industry that's generally considered to be very conservative).
