on my last adelaide hills cruise i slid through a stop sign sideways going very quick, i was doing near 180 when i locked the brakes up (because a stop sign and bank were coming up. probably slid through the sign half sideways at about 150, luckily i was heading in kinda the right directino and the road was angled so i slid up the road but its lucky there wasnt a car coming.

my skid marks were VERY VERY long, probalby around 100m, there was more smoke than any live burnout ive seen too

luckliy nothing was damaged, and im glad all of u guys got out of the car ok!!!!!!

when i crashed (different occasion)i put a friend in hospital for a week (suspected internal injuries) he was fine but its not a good feeling

be carefull cruising people

This is also a classic example of upgrading other associated parts (suspension, tryes, brakes etc) when the engine has been upgraded.

i duno if this bit was directed at me, but it was in 2 different cars, the crash was about 4 years earlier than the stop sign incident. i now have 3 rules for safe driving that i allways stick to.

1. only drive fast if you know the road well
2. only drive fast if you have had expierence in the current road conditions in that paticular place
3.only drive fast if you know your cars limits very well

if you think about it, race car drives never drive in unknown conditions or an unknown route, with the exception of rally drivers, and they atleast have pace notes saying the length and shape of each corner infront..
