This is a vauge description. What gear are you in, are you going straight, how fast are you moving, what RPM is the engine at?
I know that when I used to be revving the motor out fully and then going into a turn if I just dropped down to the next gear without double clutching it would sometimes cause me to lose some traction, initiating some sliding or wheel spin at one tire. This was when I had really old hard tires and no LSD.
