Stupidest thing you have done in your car

I'll start it off... we beached my BRZ tonight trying to sneak around a fence into an abandoned skid pan and test track. Next time I'm packing bolt cutters.

While on my way to... I got over in the far left lane to enter the freeway. As I accelerated through, some !@#$%^ driving in the non turning lane to my immediate right decided she would cut me off. Had she used her !@#$% turn signal, I would have chalked it up to a "shitty driver with horrilbe reaction timing." Just as I avoided a crash by breaking and steering around her, the traffic light turned green and I punched the accelerator... I was not prepared for what happened next!

So appearently manuvering around the vehicle in front was essentially a "feint drift" and punching the gas initiated the rest of the drift...allllllllllllll the way through the intersection and then down the on ramp! (?? while not in sport mode ??) "Hey, I got mad skillz, son."



Is luck a skill?

drove past a state trooper in an unmarked dodge charger while travelling between 160-185mph. Stupidest thing ive ever done. Getting yanked out of the car with guns drawn was the closest ive ever come to shitting my pants.
