Was there any warning? Was it already a little sideways and seemed fine at first, but then slid out too far?
Or was it "snap oversteer" where everything was balanced one second, then suddenly in a spin with no warning?

I hit the gas, and the back end immediately swung out. The car oversteered and made an arc over a small curb and into the pole. I don't remember if I lifted off the gas or not, but I'm pretty sure I must've, which then caused the oversteer to hit even harder because of the sudden weight transfer to the front wheels. It was the initial slide that happened a lot faster than I expected it to.
