I took one of our cup cars out for a little test drive the other day and as I hooked it around a flat 90 degree turn and stepped on the gas I hit a slightly slick spot in the road (from the last rain) and the back end kicked out.

I went along with it and corrected, let it travel a little way then brought it back in. I was surprised I caught it as I dont deal with loose cars very often ( I drive a subi lol)

Then I was like holy shit because there was a curb just 5 feet away and that would be bad to hit. So I took it down a notch from then on. Luckily my boss didn't see me since I was out and about in the business park.

:P

+1 for cold race tires and RWD

That was my favorite car to drive when I worked at the lincoln mercy mazda dealership. Lots of fun.
