Have you ever ALMOST wrecked your car?

Mustang92 · 04-10-2001, 03:25 PM

In my 92 LX which was a good 11-10 second street car I was on my way to the local street races. It was about 9:30 - 10:00 at night as I left my neighborhood this local dork kid with a v6, who is always trying me, was trying to get me race him. I always blew him off because it wasn't worth my time. This night though I was feeling like putting the whoop down on him. So I give my car gas once or twice and he takes off. I floor it and catch up to him and let him pull away and I catch up to him just playing with him. Then I sprayed my car and got about 10-15 car lengths in front of him.

This is on a winding road in a developement community with a 40MPH speed limit. I was up to about 110MPH and coming up quick to a shopping center when a lady pulls directly out in front of us and didn't even look. She saw us coming quick and paniced by stopping at an angle across both lanes of traffic. I locked up my front tires, skinnies, and yanked the wheels to the right where there was a grass embankment with small trees lining it. I just missed her and slide up the hill just narrowly missing all the trees and corrected the car and ended up back on the road just before the next entrance to the shopping center which would have killed my rims and more.

My car rolled on to the pavement again I looked in the mirror to see the kid in the v6 slide to hault right next to the lady. She took off scared as can be and he had 4 trashed and flat tires. I kept going and headed out to the street races. This was probably about 5 years ago.
