Well I noticed the car is not coming back so i was hoping to hit the curb and finish it. There was a chance of me getting it back but i was afraid that the car would snap the other way and i would go into oncoming traffic so i decided just to spin out on my side of the street and finish off. Well I ended up going through the driveway and landed right next to the gas pump.

-Downshift......Check
Hummm did you not predict it was going to act like a Mule on steroids considering the above circumstances?

There are a lot of checkmarks that can be mentioned. Just being 18 years old would be the biggest check marks leading into that stupidity.
top 3 things ive done
3. Getting out of a tight parking spot backed up into the curb, damaged my wheels pretty good only had them for about 6 months
(ill post pics up late)
2. First day into owning my car i pulled up to a friends house, not realizing the driveway was steep and all i heard was a nice scracthing sound as i pulled in and out
1. I decided to teach my ex-girl how to drive stick, she probably stalled it about 4-5 times, Not cool
never again!

iv had my g for about a month and a half now and one time right when i got out of work.. i didnt want to sit in the left turn lane and wait for the red to turn green so i made a right and busted a U which whipped the entire car around and i had to counter steer it across the intersection which had 4 or 5 cars watching me haha it was pretty awesome even though i didnt mean to make the turn sideways.. since then.. driving in the rain is loads of fun
