Double up on the torque driving a Z31 in the rain = hell. Call me an idiot but I have accidentally drifted my mom's Xterra on a rainy day making a right at a busy 4 way stop intersection.1uz Swapped, lowered, flaked out '86 z31
'72 Datsun 510 4dr, ka24de-T, slammed resto mod
'84 z31 turbo, coils, wheels a.k.a the gfs weekend car
'86 na2t parts for now a.k.a eventually will get running with a/c daily
'83 280zx project backburner a.k.a ls turbo drag car one day

You're probably right about that, I can't imagine remaining calm after doing a 360 much less a 540. What did you do just pull off to the side of the road and re-enter?
My most recent "almost accident" moment I was looking over my right shoulder to see if I could get in the other lane. The guy in front of me hauls ass on his brakes and I look back over just in time to get in the other lane coming within a foot of clipping his trailer. I had two people in the car that thought they were going to die but I didn't even get phased (but I did get pissed) -

Blind spots don't. I've made the mistake of relying on them one two many times when I've almost merged into a Mustang and another time a Prelude.
