Default SPUN 540 DEGREES

F***ING CIVIC! Tha lil shit cut me off while i was doin 170km/h in the fast lane. he cut me off from the middle lane and just flew into the fast lane. doin maybe 80 km....ide say roughly 45-50 miles per hour and i started to get into the shoulder lane( as ice out as it is i had a 18 wheeler back in the middle lane so i thought ide rather just hit a wall then get run over) i ended up turning a little to the right to get away from the wall, which caused me to fish tail inches right back infront of that civic and tha big rig. turned back to the left fast as hell(still fish tailin) cuz i saw tha dam wall commin at me real fast, cut right infront of the rig again and finally tha trucker thought maybe slow down for him. i turned back right to get away from the first wall again and back left once more cuz these walls looked like they were ready to play ping pong with me. that last left turn is what did it. started to spin a lot faster then the other go rounds and right there and i spun right around once and started to straighten out....bad move, jus slowed down the full spin and now im lookin at the head lights of 50 cars.

full 540 degrees......car didnt get hit.....im still alive....no cops around. happy man.

ok now before everyone goes sayin ur a dumbass and yea ur prolly right.....keep in mind im 19 so yea its kidna just guna b my nature for a while when an old rx7 wants to race. i was winnin untill i flipped out which untill that point is pretty sweet. he couldnt drive faster then me if some1 offered him a third nut. but hey. thought ide share the story.

170 km/h so that's what like 35mph? lol

So you were racing an rx-7 and then got cut off by a civic and did a 540 degree spin? Just to clarify.

Cliff notes from what I understand: Driving 105mph on icy roads racing v6 vs rx7 spun out a ton and somehow didn't wreck the car..


at least thats what I got from it but there were way to many words in there with all your fish tailing. Glad your alright man.. but I hope you realize that was retarded if the roads were were really icy

There were way too many "and turned back this way, then the wall was coming up so I turned back the other way and I saw the wall again so I turned back the other way and saw some cars so I had to turn back the other way and then I spun all the way around and then I turned again and spun 540 degrees and then I did the hokey pokey and turned myself around" and thats what it's all about.
