no your drivin right obviously 9 times out of 10 if you spin it its because your driving like a cunt ill be the 1st to admit it ive done it but the 2 i did was where no1 elses life was at risk only my own i found out astra mk3s dont drift well lol. and it was in the wet,
last nites spin out i dunno whos fault itd have been but i was a prick for racing in the 1st place,
doin 80 and on the island the civic vti was infront so close tht i couldnt even stand between the cars but wwe was in two separate lanes if you know wat i mean at this point cominoff the carrageway, i was about to go for it there was a car coming but i could see i could of gone still,
plenty of time instaed this civic jumped inmy lane barely missing the front of my car and slams on obviousluy its gonna have far better brakes,
me bein in my corsa has no choice but to brake its sortof on a twist aswell the corsa span ended up facing the wrong way but i managed 2 steer away from the other car and lampost and still manage 2 not jump the junction.
whos fault would it of been out of nowhere he just cut me up in litterally inches but id of hit him up the arse.
and yes ill say it i was a complete cunt for racing.

another thing i found out last month was tht u can be the best driver in the world but nothin prepares you for a pissed up driver hitting you up the arse at the traffic lights, then the pisstake being tht driver tryed 2 fuk off and wat did she get on the 24th of this month 14months ban and a 200 quid fine and my neck kills me, my m8s new car was smashed up its a joke, youd get more moths for drivin dangerously without crashing.

If you want it faster
lose weight off the car (free and effective)
lexmaul inlet (£300+ very effective and easy to fit)
4-2-1 manifold (anything from £150 to £400 for a good one)
all of the above will give you a tidy little car

Well he did ask for the help and i was a bit out of order. Never mind, i hope no harm has been done! £500 to spend on a 1.4 16v engine is completely insane though!!
