Today it was wet in melbourne as always - I love it when it's wet, there is nothing better than a RWD turbo car in the wet, am I right? Today as I turned into uni (cutting a few people off) I decided to give them a little show and do a beautiful fishtail. Unfortuneatly I ended up over correcting and did a full 180! With my beautiful silver nose facing the oncoming (by this stage PISSED OFF) traffic. The move passed me as I wondered how the f&%k I would turn around...then just my luck some dam skippy poof cops turned into the road and put the brakes on. On came the lights and we were parked nose to nose....

"license please..."
**shit **shit **shit.... -me
"why are you facign this direction?"
"officer, I thought it was a two way road, I guess I'm just under a bit of stress from my exams coming up" - me
"alirght well just turn around and go out the right way, best of luck on the exams"
"thankyou" -me


and off I went on my merry way...showed a friend my tyres makes...I missed two poles but mere centimeters...and what have a leant from this experience?

wet days + wet roads + turbo cars + RWD = FUN!!!

Was it at the 2 lane right turn into the main entrance/
I had a mate who did a 360 there in his 260z. Funny thing is it was dry at the time

On the way home from getting off defect, was in a double lane to turn right at the intersection, i was in the inside lane when it changed to amber, i braked a bit harder to stop for it instead of going thru (had a plate in my zorst) when the ford next to me speeds up to go through it. well he friggin loses the ass end, ends up taking up both turning lanes (where i would have been!!!) and ending up 180 where he floored it back in the opposite direction. the fool could have taken my car out if i didn't brake harder to stop on the amber :twisted: 2mins after getting my baby off defect as well :twisted:
