You also seemed to instinctively minimize how much you "argued" with inertia while you gathered it up, that helped too.
It could have been. It is hard to tell. I am racking my brain trying to figure it out. I knew I had one chance to get the recovery right so I did minimal inputs. I am glad the stock VLSD was not in the car. I would have wagged the tail for sure like it has done many times before. Reality is I was lucky, everything went my way.
