You have to remember that droop also affects from side to side as well as front to back. By giving the rear more droopl, you allowed that wheel to stay on the ground and maintain some traction. When you're in the middle of a corner, droop is affecting front-rear roll and side to side as well.

If you don't have it, go buy a copy of "Tune to Win", it will explain a tremendous amount.
