With the greatest of respect to those saying otherwise, the right answer is to get the clutch down, stop the car spinning and then brake. If you get on the brakes while you are still spinning then as long as they arent locked it wont do any harm.
I dont know of any drifter that doesnt let the wheel go on transition, you simply cant move your hands quickly enough from lock to lock if you dont ........ even Clarksons sliding improved considerably when he started letting the wheel move on its own. This can get you out of a mess if you have an unexpected back end slide on track, the quicker you can get to the lockstops the more likely you are to catch it.
As for the second bit, why would you pull the wand, thats just going to rotate you even further and potentially onto wet grass at speed? Get the car straight with the clutch in, then footbrake to a halt, happy days.
Even in a spin docrwa I'm not on about transitioning I'm on about spinning out
Also your not stupid you telling me all the fd guys when the spin and hold the wand on are doing it wrong?
