I had a little shake up after dinner
You know, I'm starting to wonder if i should be going to meets, it seems something bad always happens or almost happens to me when I do. Tonight coming home, I'm driving 65-70 on 405 when someone doing 50 cuts right infront of me, I slam on the brakes and the rear locks up and starts to drift to the left a little. Thank God he got out of my way and I was able to recover. Never a dull moment for me when i get together with you guys,

I am glad to hear it was nothing more that a shake up and you are ok.

Yes please do be careful! Perhaps we need to start having meets within a mile of you!

Yeah but ivtemt had to watch my taillights disappear out the parking garage!
 I had to do a loop around the garage to drive over and check out the Viper GTS that was parked over on the other side. It was all by itself and if I had my camera I would have takena picture of the 2 cars together. Then again, maybe not, I wouldn't want to make the Viper look bad.

The black one went the fastest because I always forget that the speed limit drops for the bridge. That, and I haven't gotten a speeding ticket yet, so I haven't learned to slow down.
Maybe we need to escort Tim home, so if he does get in a wreck, at least he has witnesses and a ride. Hmmm, a convoy of SVXes.

I'm curious?
 Doesn't the SVX have 4 wheel anti-lock? or was there ICE?

You can get them to skid on a wet road. I have done it, but it is harder for them to break loose.

The reason he was driving that car instead of his SVX goes back to his original post about maybe he should avoid meets.  (I'll let him explain if he wants to divulge his string of bad luck)
