(hijack)Yeah - I wrote off a ford laser once, and I've spun my car on dirt roads so many times it's not funny (you couldn't em with three hands even), I've slid off dirt roads thrice (no damage) and basically done some seriously stupid shit (like going sideways over a jump - held it though). Most of this stuff was done on very quiet dirt roads in the middle of the night on extremely twisty roads so they have never been high-speed accidents (most starting at less than 50km/h) so no one has ever been injured, and I've never damaged anything on a dirt road.
Of course, all the dirt driving has taught me alot and I'm a competent driver these days. I just wish that we had a controlled place where most drivers could go learn these things without the risk of injury.
It's when I see driving lines on the dirt roads that go up the middle of the road when approaching a blind-crest that I think I'm the sane driver, and everyone else is crazy! If you can't see, you don't go!

Nice car btw - white is always a good economical colour sweet that it came with some mags too! Here's hoping it gets out and about soon enough so that there is one more ST162 that isn't being driven by a hairdresser on the road!
