i was next to the guy when he spun from the far left lane on ridge headed towards norristown, all the way across6 lanes tag a car then the pole, he was doing about 40 tapped the brakes and went for 2 complete rotations, i thought he would pull it out but today wasnt the day

air bags didnt go off and it appeared to be just the driver in the car,

well, it was me. boy did i F@#$ up guys and girls. i dont post up on the forms much just look around and things like that, but i was going to post this.........

jcox....i didnt know how many rotations i did.....i just remember tapping the brakes and the back end coming out from right under me. it was absolutly unbelievable. next thing i knew i was spinning thru the intersection into the other way traffic. Scary as Sh@T!!! as i was sliding and spinning i remember thinking to myself...plese dont hit anything, please dont hit anything. but i knew i was going to. then BOOM! hit a acura mdx. i think i hit it and then spun again onto the sidewalk. I actually missed the tree by 3 feet (thank god) the woman who i hit ran up to mycar asking me if i was ok, i told her yes and then just sat in my car staring at the roof in shock, just sat there shaking.

got out of the car and my back,neck, and ankle hurt a lil bit....it took the good ol philadelphia police an hour to get there. o well.

my car is totaled. everyone was ok and that is the most important thing,it was the scariest thing that ever happened to me.

pup-you and i met at the starbucks in plymouth

sorry to say it all, RIP my s2000

ps-i just wanted to go to blockbuster to rent some movies..................lol-wtf.....

i feel bad see something like happen to a delval member and not stopping, and do apologize for not. i just didnt want to end up pulling the same move with near bald tires on the blazer and being drenched to the bone from the soapbox race.
