Default Almost crashed!

So I was taking a friend for a ride turning left and didn't see the car in the inside lane coming. Car was not straight yet and I stomped on it to get out of the way. Slide sideways turned into the slide then it snapped the other direction. I seriously thought we were toast. Managed to get control and somehow didn't crap my pants.

I have done amateur and professional racing with lots of car control training. I firmly believe that is the only thing that saved my bacon.

My whole point of all of this is to say be careful out there! These cars with big horsepower and short wheelbase will snap very quickly. Get some track time under you belt or find an empty parking lot and learn how to handle the car.

Hope you all had a safe and happy Labor Day.
