So anyone know what speed being sideways is a super bad thing? This came off the Chevelle board, I don't know what car it is, looks like a newer style wheel away but ouch.
That's definatly one thing I hope I never experiance.

I'll bet that was a tubbed car with the narrow rear end and 18 inch wide tires. Those things just look scarey to drive down the street IMHO. It didn't look like he was even going 60 mph when it flipped over cause he only slid the lid for a few seconds. Cool vid though it sucks to be him.  |

Nasty. Could almost hear the bowel release when the car finally stopped sliding.

I think that is a Grand National. Could definately hear it spooling up.
I love the sound of a turbo. |

if you look close its a mustang dash 87-93
if you look really close you can see the ford oval on the steering wheel in the beginning
