If its popping like that and your not throttling out of a tight turn, you've got a poor set up. Or low tire pressure in one tire.

by far the scariest drive i have ever been on was heading over mt.hood with my cusin in his spooled rear, locked front big block blazer on 40s... it was pretty much just point.. hit the gas and hope and pray you ended up where you wanted it to go.. we bounced off a few snow banks and a gardrail or two.. but when it was all done we wanted to do it again

My Aussie hasn't ever popped or jerked around a corner, on ice, it still unlocks when I'm off the throttle.
