on my way home from work at about 1230 i always take an exit lane to hide from police radar, well iwas cruzin and i saw somebody coming up off the ramp, i flashed my highs so that they would merge accordingly, NOPE they just flew right in front of me(as my flashback of my z32 slaming into a malibu doin 75 went through my mind)
so ne ways i slamed on my breaks...no abs..and ended up about sliding prob 100 ft ending about 1 ft from the side of this car, now im gonna have to R&B (rotate and burnout) to get rid of these spots, cause i fell of bump bump bump. fckn sucks, bastards
then again maybe i should slow down

first of all, flashing high beams usually tells the people to go first......
however i am sorry to hear abt your rubber..... nothing u can do but buy new tires.....

yeah true, i just wanted to make him aware of my presence...it was pretty late and there were not too many cars on the road so he didnt think twice im sure of just coming over in the lane....the thing that pissed me off is that when i was skidding getting ready to hit him, he was on his brakes....#### im pissed..i just got my new rims and tires back like 2 weeks ago too

hey cody, proper english would help us understand what the fuck you are trying to say.. but its all good, i got the picture. :)
next time, learn how to MOD-U-LATE your pedal so you dont lockup. another added bonus to today's lesson would be to keep your eyes on your mirrors, that way maybe you can "change lanes" to let your fellow driver into the highway with you.. its the polite way to drive.
Unless of course, you like going from 110mph to 5 with zero tire rotation. :)

modulating the brakes to stay on the verge of locking stops faster than locking the brakes anyways.... but beware of brake fade.

now after inspection of the tires it doesnt seem to be that. Im ordering the brembo crossdrilled off of ebay in the next couple of days, bc ive been told that my rotors were shot. maybe this will fix it, well ill guess ill find out later.
