| While I have my fair share of car park skids, highway waterplannings and go-cart power slides. What Happened today was a first for me.
Made a wrong turn and ended up at the start of the infamous 99-bends. Tot to myself, u-turn at the end of the bends - itchy legs.
Pushed the car thru the bends on a sunny afternoon.
first few bends was fine. confidence picked up. and start going faster and use less brakes to regulate. neither was I downshifting for better traction and speed control.
then suddenly, before I can say "shit!"
The car started throwing itself towards the railingsm and thee was a loud screeching sound even amidst my blasting of ICE.
natural instinct kicks in.
I counter steered, a bit off guard, and the car swing itself towards the on-cominhg traffic lane.
I quickly swerve my ride back on to my own lane.
the car took a split sec to stabilise itself | |
