360 on the highway last night.........

so i was with my buddy last night and for whatever reason i was feeling kinda stupid . so i was pullin out onto the highway and decided to let it rip and ride it out drift style into traffic. well, i wound it out in 1st and second did the same. right when i crossed over the center it really kicked around hard. so started counter steering and it just kept gettin worse. for about 70 yards was nothin but sliding around before i finally got too close to the center wall and slammed on the brakes and ended up perpidicular in the center of the highway. well, nothin major, but now when i turn my wheels i get a wierd buzzing sound coming from the front wheels?? i dunno, guess that what i get?

thats some wild ****... maybe some of the plastic is rubbing on the wheel when you turn?


I did a 180 once doing 130 mph... I would have swore I was dead back then....

Their is a bit more to my story...

They were working on 75 south and I was ridding in the lane they were working on.. cones separated the lane from the others. Nice and new.. no one was working on the road at that time.. I was haulin *** doing 130,, when all of a sudden the road ended.. I cut the wheel, hit a cone and did a nice 180 whipped it back around and was shittin bricks..... never slowed down. was still doing over 100 mph...
