If you take T4 flat out once or twice, you know you can do it, so no harm in a little lift or tap. You can save the flat outs for races.
The concept here is very accurate, and it is the 944's you have to worry about. The only time my back end has ever stepped out coming out of T4 is when a 944 pissed its coolant out all down the chute. Lucky for me I was as usual maintaining a safety margin and was able to save it, or my car would have been wall art.
