Yeah, but Moss had those nifty little coil spring camber compansators, low pivot swing axles........ and a 300SLR!
But you're right, putting on the power in a lot of situations is better than backing off.

Stirling Moss said that to make the swing axle Mercedes handle he learned to accelerate whenever the back end started to misbehave. I think he said an MD engineer told him to try it.
