i am a little confused...did you lose brakes before going into the corner at 25, were you braking mid corner or did you need to stop right after making the turn? i am assuming you were braking while going through the corner at 25...if so were you braking because you were already sliding? if so that could explain the no ABS...tires stopped moving even if car didnt. Had you been driving hard prior to this incident and possibly had brake fade (ive had this happen at the track) or was it on cool brakes?

So all you did was let completely off the accelerator and then slammed the brakes mid-turn, right? You didn't do anything more like slathering armor all or crisco on the tread of your tires, did you?
I can't see hoe this accident could be avoided. I believe you have a strong legal case against Toyota, Subaru and their component suppliers for the braking components including and especially the brake pedal. Seek legal counsel immediately before making any statements to insurance. I think you may also have suffered severe soft tissue injury. -Justin

Clearly, it was the fault of the 151 t0rks. He could have dead, that was a close call!
