To drive at high speed around an unbanked horizontal curve on the earth.

Explanation:

Garvitational pull on on eart is 6 times more than on the moon. On. Earth, the vehicle will have more grip on the surface due to its weight. This grip will reduce its tendency to skid off the horizontal curve when compared to driving in the same unbanked horizontal curve on the moon.
