Almost died in my Nissan 350Z Today

[Alan Freeman]

OK, It all started 4:00pm i went to go pick up my Z after getting the rear axel fixed turned out great. After that came home 5:15 Played some BF2 on the PC 7:00pm then decided to go see a movie 7:45pm. After the movie I actually left 10 min before the movie ended cause of traffic on that street and before i got into my car it started to rain ok no problem I made a left out of the theater and made another left onto another street going about 15 - 20 MPH and SWWOOOOSH my car goes out of control and does a full 360 and finally my front end lands on the curb with a BOOM . I really thought i was going to die . THank god i left early or else i would have hit every car next to me.There was nobody on that street, it was a 2 lane sooo Phewww.
This really scared me. I slowly backed up the car off the curb and drove away into the next parking lot to check out my baby and it was a miracle no damage whatsoever Hmmm I checked it agian and agian and agian and nothin, This was a day ill never forget. I've only had this car for a few weeks and i almost crashed it. I want to say to you guys just be very carefull when driving in rain or snow. PLEASE . Its late im going to bed now and tomm ill check it out in the daylight . What a day what a day

[xLostx]

[Ennui]

[ailevation]

350Z pretty good car, i'd still take STI or Evo8 over it.

I'll take my 2nd gen RX7 over those

But yeah, I doubt you woulda died if you got hit *unless you were hanging out the door * but glad to see you're super alright!

 

[Beerdude26]

You're still alive, and that's what matters.
Btw when you die can I have your Pr0n?

 

[Shamrock]

That is because you were running in Safe Mode.

 

[Ennui]

hahaha!

 

[SimonomiS]

Install a better driver.

 

[Ennui]

Oh the humor is unbearable!

 

[Qonfused]

Wow, nice car.

 

[dream431ca]

Trying out the horses on a wet road ain't so fun....But at least your ok..a little shaken..but ok.

 

[dream431ca]

Wow, nice car.

I second that..how did you afford it?

 

[DreadLord]

You won't get my STi. Although my girlfriend drives an Evo MR and it's quite a nice ride.

 

[RakuraiTenjin]

What's a Z?

 

[xcellerate]

rwd + rain = bad

i love my dub, wouldn't trade it for anything.

...well maybe id accept an enzo, then sell it; and build the most awesome rabbit ever.

[duffers20]

Good to hear you are ok and I hope you didn't/don't find any damage. Nice car btw!

 

[sinkoman]

I'd take an IROC Z over anything.

YEEEHAW!!!

But yeah, wouldn't want to see a fellow hl2.netter scarfed by the rain :thumbs:

 

[Garfield_]

Im glad nobody got hurt and that your really nice car didnt crash

 

[Unfocused]

What movie was it? Must've been bad if you left 10 minutes before the end.

Glad to hear you're all right.

 

[Seppo]

you probably wouldn't have died anyway because you weren't driving like 120mph

 

[clarky003]

good that ure safe.. but howdya do a 360 at 20 mph,,... lol, was ure car mounted on a merrygoround base...?

 

[Kamikazie]

i wonder if there was a scratch/dent because hes not talkin...HES DEAD!

anyways, glad to here that your alright (for now)...

 

[Seppo]

good that ure safe.. but howdya do a 360 at 20 mph,,... lol, was ure car mounted on a merrygoround base...?

Apparently it was raining. Though it sounds next to impossible to spin 360 degrees at 20mph, unless you're driving on ice.

 

[Maxi]

yeah it does sound pretty impossible.

 

[clarky003]

unless his car has a 90 degree turning circle... or perhaps he's *gasp* exagerating :O

 

[Kamikazie]

unless his car has a 90 degree turning circle... or perhaps he's *gasp* exagerating :O

he wouldnt do such a thing...would he?

 

[xcellerate]

he's telling the truth, it happened to my friend and i when we we're in his trans am. We probably weren't even doing 20, we had just pulled out from a stop sign to make a large left handed turn up a hill and then, slip, we're facing backwards.

Facing backwards = 180 degrees.

 

[Kamikazie]

i still think hes dead...

Roffles she wasted money on the MR. America's MR blows compared to what europe and japan gets.

 

[kingthebadger]

Alan Freeman, got respect for you, u drive a ****ing sweet car, btw how old are you?

 

[DreadLord]

Her dad's boss gave it to him for free, but he didn't want it so he gave it to her. Not a dollar wasted. And it's a sweet car.

 

[Parrot of doom]

You haven't experienced fear unless you've been driving your TVR in the rain, and the back end is fishtailing all over the place.

Believe me, I've been there!

 

[DiSTuRbEd]

Alan, do this, take your car to a local auto-cross event, learn how much it can take and learn how to drift, never worry about the problem again

 

[Dalamari]

which is why everyone needs a 1966 Shelby Mustang GT-350 and a set of huge tires.

 

[KoreBolteR]

glad your ok.

havnt talked to you since our bf2 thread

That's a 180.

Also, that car is RWD, and I think the 350z is FWD, but I'm not 100% sure.
