They probably try to mash the throttle out of a tight corner at apex, in the rain, and get mad when VDC cuts all throttle and initiates some selective braking to kill the slide they just started.  |
Yeah that is pretty much why my dad helped me with lending me money.He knows I wont go try and drift every corner on the road and go 120+ constantly, top speed I got at francorchamps was around 140-145mph on the straight.
I know my limits. This is my first sports car and my first RWD car and I lack the proper skills to handle it like people who have driver RWD cars their entire life. My previous cars was a 1.5 diesel renault clio and a 1.9 diesel megane coupe. the meganeas nice though 130 HP and 300 torque.
The GT-R that crashed was owned by a 23 year old that got it from his parents. He probably thought he was going to be awesome and pushed it too far and crashed it. not once, not twice but three ******* times.
First time he spun out and smashed the left side of his rear bumper pushing the left two exhaust in the bumper and beyond. His reaction? "oh thierry(the GT-R mechanic) have a test drive and see if he still drives"
He just kept on going and then flew off again totally screwing up the front bumper, later he did it again ruining it more.
He didn'tcare because his dad would probably pay him.
I got half the money from my parents but I am repaying them and if I wreck the Z that is it. done with the Z and see if I can find a cheap golf.
