this is not a big deal to me - more a pain in the ass but Im shocking comfortable spinning cars. I dont like to do it with curbs around, but Im sure it will happen to me again at some point. There wasnt another car in sight.
The road WAS slick and I misjudged the fall away corner. The whole car got light under me cuz I was trying to turn a corner as the road fell away. Ive got wide PZero Rossos all around with tons of tread left...
Youre right Ron, Spas do slide around more. Its because they come about 1000lbs lighter than all others and one thing the people dont realize, is that they actually have 800HP.
BTW - hear me leaving in the morning (no silencers)?

Only prob. is i hear the extra power only comes on in the wet with the steering wheel turned.
And we all know that the weight savings must be from the ricer CF hood of yours.

.. wait a sec Fred, wasn't your spin on the track through the big puddle?
Or maybe the yellows are just more slippery like a banana peel.
