The pilot reported that the airplane touched down on the left side of the runway centerline. During the landing roll, he applied right rudder to steer the airplane back to the runway centerline, but he lost directional control, and the airplane exited the right side of the runway. The main landing gear encountered wet dirt on the right side of the runway, and the airplane subsequently nosed over. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the vertical stabilizer and the right-wing lift strut. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
