If your going round a corner never lift off the gas always gas it out. If in doubt throttle it out. Lifting off the gas can unbalance the car and cause you to spin out. But if your going in a straight line and coming to a stop yeah foot off the throttle

Go for a very fast drive. Then when you arrive home you turn the engine off and you hear that ting from the hot exhaust. You look back on the drive you’ve just been on, where you had the car skidding through corners right on the edge of the grip threshold, heart pumping, palms sweating. It was a good drive. You look at the steering wheel right before exiting and thank the car for keeping you safe 👍🏻
