hahah wow i had my first encounter with my ra last night...i took a turn off of a local highway a lil too fast (er 50mph-ish) and it was quite a turn...well i ended up 180ed on the grass...pretty scary to be honest and i wasreally surprised and happy that the car was fine hah...aside from the grass thats now nice and snugg between my rim and tire gotta get that out today...SOO any else got a scary experience???

 

thats why you race on a track!!!!

 

No. Because we know how to NOT drive like jackasses on the street.

 

apprently not

 

lol...u tell em guys. lol..he said himself he drives like he stole it.

 

yeah, and if you stole a car and drove like that you'd end up in jail. Thats usually how they catch those guys.

You need some training man. Take it easy and save up some money to go to the track with an instructor. Either that or save up some money for your deductible.

 

The first time I expirienced oversteer I went all the way around. Ever since then, I know what it feels like now so I've been able to correct it. It's a good learning expirience though. You should know the limits of your car.

 

yes but do it in a safe place that you don't crash into someone elses car

 

Sure it is, on a track.

 

Blind are we?

I don't remember reading anything about him racing another car on the highway or on the exist.

Reading is fundamental.

 

I mean we all do dumb **** every now and then, so I guess we can't beat him up too bad.

 

"I took a turn off a local highway" yes reading is fundamental but can you read
I don't know about you but I see a car or two on the highway

 

Again, reading is fundamental...

If somebody said they took a turn to fast off the highway, you don't tell them to stop street racing and keep it on the track. Neither you or I know if there was another car encounter, so we can only base or statement on what he wrote and what he wrote had nothing to do with him racing another car.

 

Agreed. People are hurling stones like they don't ever drive agressively except for on the track. Frankly, if you say that I just don't believe you. So what? He made a silly mistake. Now he more accurately knows the limits of his car. I'm pretty sure each one of us is guilty for throwing our RA's around a corner at more than the posted speed of it. No one, or car was hurt thankfully, and now he knows he should pick up a rear strut tower brace, or lower tie bar, and perhaps some better tires.

 

^^ +1

i don't street race and i usually don't drive agressivley. but right after i put a new part in or sometimes when im in the mood, i test her out a little bit. i don't put her up to 100 in a 35 or anything but as long as your not a complete moron playing around sometimes is ok.
