Won't having a wide rear track cause the rear to lose grip?

Did a lot of track width testing today. For my car, the end that is wider has more lateral grip. Which sounds good to me as it aligns with theory, wider has less lateral weight transfer = more grip from both tires.
Especially on-power from mid corner to exit. If rear is wider I can catch the slide. If narrower, sudden spinout.
Yours might work well depending on other areas (e.g. camber, toe, etc). Mine was at zero camber all around, 2deg toe rear, 0deg toe front. M-grip tires all around.
Maybe you used a front tire with less grip than the rear?
