so you where difting around the 90 degree sweeper? Lemme guess you don't have the racing beat rear tow eliminators, which causes unpredictable oversteer, looks as if you where hanging the right rear out, then the rear toe slig shot you back it to an uncontrollable slide off the road, Iam I right?

Ouch.....

Did you get you 300lbs of parts from the states yet? If so, tell me you didn't put them on yet. It would just add insult to injury to damage a new piece.

At least you had the stock wheels on - that curb would have made short work of those Imolas...

I don't think my girlfiend would be so 'smiley faced' if I stuffed my car in a ditch with her in the front seat!

Why do people like taking the slow way around the track? Drifting is stupid. Oh, and power on oversteer != drifting.
