Expert drivers regain authority in these conditions by drifting. Existing autonomous recovery approaches are validated on idealized scenarios, define "recovered" states empirically and inconsistently, or rely on offline-planned trajectories rather than acting online. We address these gaps by first training a racing policy with reinforcement learning that learns drifting as a time-optimal maneuver, then adapting it to recovery through continued training with a minimum-time reward. We define recovery relative to a phase-plane-grounded stable equilibrium and introduce Gym-Khana for controller training and evaluation. Across 294 initial loss-of-control states, the transferred policy improves recovery by 186.8% over a Stanley path tracker and outperforms both a nonlinear model predictive controller and a recovery-only policy trained from scratch, while also recovering faster on states the baseline can already handle. An ablation shows that racing pretraining, rather than broader initial-state exposure alone, drives this gain. Deployed on a physical 1:10-scale F1TENTH vehicle using system identification, actuator-lag modelling, and domain randomization, the transferred policy outperforms Stanley on every tested loss-of-control state, including recovering 50% of the time from a hard state the baseline never recovers from.
