Power understeer.
"Another exercise is to drive around the circle while gradually adding throttle. You will feel the car run a wider and wider path because of the increased speed and because, by accelerating, you are reducing the loading and therefore the grip on the front (steering) tires. You may get the sensation that not much is happening when you add steering. This is called power understeer. It also results in ear splitting tire squeal and abuse."

My car did this a little too much prior to the mods, albeit at a much slower pace to an Enzo.
