here is what happened: well, basically,started out in the right lane, launched it hard at about 3500, boost was set to 15 psi, i was just spinning the tires till about 1000ft, then it hooked, i 180'd it, slamed in on the passenger side....then spun around again into the middle of the left lane...

i'm ok thank god...

[TurboTravis]

These cars are not very stable at all. Sorry to hear that. But next time man you gotta let off instead of staying in it.

 

[casper]

damn...that really sucks...going into the wall at 90 mph and walking out without any major injury is truly a blessing. thank god to toyota's body engineering

 

[Dan94TT]

Tony I am terribly sorry to hear of what happend to you.. I am however very glad that you were un-harmed. Your car was no doubt beautiful, but as they say cars can be replace.. people can not. Again, sorry to hear about your accident.. but I am happy that you are ok. Just caught up with you on AIM so I will talk to you on there.

they are as stable as it gets when you put extra XXX hp/trq on top
