What was the fastest you've taken a corner/turn?
 

Just as the titles states. What was the fastest you've taken a residential corner or turn? Not on the highway/freeway but spirited driving cruising your neighborhood.

I've taken some 90degree turns with the sport mode on at around 35-45mph. I heard the back tires chirp a slight bit even with traction on. Maybe I can turn it off and actually drift the turn, but I need to know the limits of my FRS first.

Post your adventures!

I don't drive like an asshat in neighborhoods.

true, but I make sure no one is around. I mean NO ONE! and not late at nights either since peeps are prob asleep.

"A California man in a Scion sports car skidded out of control, and ended up crashing into a house early this morning. Thankfully no one was home... " lol

Spirited cruising, best served cool hot.

on a twisting road... 60. Residential... 25.

Keep it on the track man.

Many sharp turns on 2 lane roads have a sign indicating the speed you should take the turn. I figure twice that speed is about right :)

I'm guessing you'll be the next guy to write a "I totalled my FRS" Thread?

Can you see EVERYTHING? Behind bushes, other cars, and obstacles? Oh wait, I can answer that for you: No. I hope, for your sake, that you do not learn your lesson by hitting some poor kid who suddenly came out from behind a car or another obstacle.

Looking around to see if there's no one around is a crappy way of justifying taking a neighborhood corner at the highest speed that you can. And even thinking about drifting around it is idiotic.

So you get out of your car and walk around the neighborhood in a grid pattern to make sure no one is around? Oh, wait... you don't do that? You mean you can see everything from your windshield?!?! Wow, that is truly amazing.

I expected to get some backlash and rightfully so. I got the hint from the first response. :respekt: I've been driving for over 20 years. I am not reckless and I have a near perfect driving record.

I don't drive recklessly and I don't drive like an asshat. It's not like I drive 40 in a 25MPH zone. I drive 25mph. I take the corner at the speed limit where I can see clearly in all directions and no houses or objects are in the vicinity. And I do not do it on every corner. I don it once in a great great while. Even if I wipe out, which will never happen, there's nothing to hit even if I wanted to, no bush, no houses, no cars, no pets, no humans. Lighten up peeps.

I turned off the traction control and turned a corner this morning.... Ended up facing the wrong way... Turned traction control back on....

I can respect that, and I'll admit to taking a corner at faster than recommended speeds when I first got the car. Then my girl friend's dad said something that made a lot of sense, "an accident is an accident, doesn't mean it wasn't preventable though".

The car is great isn't it? I'm looking forward to my first dry track day to see what it can really do.
