hi all...havnt posted in a long time......just want to tell u guys......our max under unexpected conditions are especially easy to oversteer....
.....this afternoon me and a couple of buddies are riding in my max.....
...going to find a place to hang out and im on this road which im fairely used to....this right curve.........it curves easy at first and turns sharp at the end.....and so i decided to speed up a little bit.....80km/h....and as i turn everything seemed fine and suddently i noticed understeer....i turned more and just rested my food on the brake a little....then all of a sudden the car decided to play a trick by swinging it's tail out....ofcourse i steered to the left......DaMn...!...the tail spun to the right......then i turned right again.......OMG.....!...then it spun to the left...and as i saw the right curb comming at me in 70km/h i turned the steering to the left all the way and jamed on the brake once to let the car swing to the other side.....
....then.....silence.....screeeeeeEEEchH.......im now almost horizontal with the traffic......mann....!!....that was a big scare.....this happened in about 3~4 seconds......thank god the road is dry.....later on i found out my rear tire pressure was at 40psi....from racing with my friend last time i've increased my rear tire pressure for better turning.....mann....
....and maybe it's cuz i drank too much from the last night and i wasn't really clear of what im doing......that's y i entered the corner so fast....
....well....thank god nothing happened.....i gotta drive more carefu...!!!l:bloated:
