i just got me a little 4cyl geo pryzm about a month ago, which is a great deal smaller than my lincoln
so anyways i was out cruisin on some back roads, and desided to try and see if i could slide around some corners.
the first couple corners were going well, then i came to a short and sharp corner that was posted that i was supposed to go 20mph, instead i was going around 50:D
anyways i was sliding like i expected, but just a little too fast, i ended up in the other lane and tried to stear back into the right lane, and thats when i lost control. i got back into the right lane but was headed toward the ditch, then i tried to straighten my self out, instead i went side ways, sliding again, taking up both lanes and ended up half way in a ditch i couldnt get out of because it was about a foot drop off from the road
but anyways it was lots of fun!:D i might try it again some time or something:D

That sounds a lot like what I did when I was 19, but I was going much faster, and I slid sideways going 70mph into a tree.:o I was ok, but my car wasn't. The engine got knocked off the mounts, and some metal piece went through the transmission making this crazy grinding noise. It's safe to say the car was ****ed.:D

i wouldnt try that again unless you have a car that was meant for that kinda thing. your very lucky that a car didnt come while you were in this whole ordeal. or that someone wasnt walking along the side of the road.

You drive an SUV correct? That is why you flipped over. You made a bad purchase IMO.

I live out in the middle of nowhere, so back roads are everywhere...
Theres one particular road with a short steep hill and a 55 speed limit. Take that one at 55 and you go flyin :D
Theres also a nice dirt road that hairpins. Its all flat with field around it so you can take it at whatever you want and be fine (you can see the cars coming, and nobody to kill). Fun as fsck to try and make it going 45 without going off the road :D

Around here, driving madly along back roads you'd be more likely to hit a horse, and the six-year-old kid riding it.

If you're going to bring it on yourself like that, don't expect me to care when you get hurt or killed...... people like you end up on darwinawards.com getting laughed at.
