i've gotten this before while make sharp turns at full lock, and not
necessarily at heavy throttle. it sounds and feels like tire scrub to
me.
i attributed it to the extreme steering angle allowed by the car, which
is great for reducing the turning radius, but possibly goes way beyond
the suspension's ability to produce the correct ackermann steering angles.
