Top Ten moments in a car...... Not nesc the best, but most memorable
i mean driving, not shagging etc etc
1: Hitting the side of a transit van at about 60mph.
Was on my way home from Uni, taking the back roads.... small B roads, national limit. Came to a corner that i've been round many a time.... 1 car coming round the corner head on, 1 transit van parked half on the road on the corner (gradual left hand turn, i was in the left hand lane). I avioded the on coming car, but 'clipped' the transit. The other car went into a ditch.
My car needed a new front bumper, wing, door, wing mirrir, windscreen and work the bonnet and rear 1/4... Much the same to the other car. The transit van just needed a spray and a bash
2: Nearly loosing it at 70mph in the mkII supra.
Was driving along the M8 from Greenock... not booting it, the car changed up a gear, unstuck the rears... Next thing i know, im facing the side of the road sliding at what felt like an angle of 45 degrees off straight. Corrected that and went sliding over the other side... corrected this about 5 times before i breathed again. Didnt think id catch that one as i was not even pushing the car.
3: Nearly going into a river in aberdeen.
Was coming back to mine to go out and get pished.. few mates in the back of the mkIV supra... So i was being a bit of a pleb. Came off a round about sideways, as i do. Got it straight then booted it.... arse end kicked out, front clipped the kerb... and i got it under control. On the other side of the kerb was the River Dee
4: The look on a womans face when boating it sideways past.
On the way back from crail in the mkIV supra.... side by side with 3series BMW going through a speed camera. I pull away after it.... but dont really go anywhere exept to the side. Managed to keep it in check as i was half expecting it.... But the woman passanger wasnt by the look on her face
5: Icy's face at 160mph
You went a bit quiet
6: Going off the clock in the supra.
Had to see what it would do with 480bhp eh Passed shekie's bro at 180 or so met him later on, all he said was. 'How fucking fast were you going'. I needed a new set of breaks after that. The car felt so bloody stable at that speed too, plus to be honest, i never even pushed the boost past half way to get there
7: Trashing the corsa at crail
A nice warm sunday afternoon, the usual 1/4mile shit. I had to get towed out of a field on the return road because i lost it and spun backwards into a field Then loosing a wheel arch splatting a tyre wall on the drifting ring mehehehe
8: Crazy beatch in a 1.4 16v Corsa
This is back in the day when i had my 115bhp sport. She was trying to race me on the motorway, and kept loosing. So i just drove in front for a while at 125mph or so... then slowed... she would not give up. The race continued through 50mph roads, roundabouts etc..... she was mental... nearly crashed into me a few times great fun but bloody dodgy
9: Des destroying the tarmac.
Parked outside a bakery in some small village.. Des spins the wheels on the supra.... making a hole in the road never mind undertaking at 120 eh
10: Kerry's face when i took her for a drive
In the supra, on gay'ish boost setting... been getting the arse out on roundabouts etc, then on the way home... I was prob going to fast for the road, but some chump pulled out... So i just thought quickly (and prob not the best way) and booted it to pass them.... on the wrong side of the road with cars coming towards us.... my ears hurt for a while after her screaming

My best near miss was coming into a service station off a dual carridge way, which is a 90 degree turn. It was raining after a long dry spell so the road was dead slippy. Come into the bend at 60 start braking, realise there is a lorry coming other way so brake a bit harder, rears locked and ended up facing the curb looking at the truck driver through my side window.

1. Rolled the corsa
rainy, wet, baldish tyres and at night, came round this lane one way corner thing thought fuk it see how fast I can go, bend got alot tighter started sliding tried to hold it went one way, back the other then 'BANG' and crunch as it rolls.
2. rear end a car in me civic
going round the corner (blind corner) maybe a bit too fast, and was 'distracted' by girl in passenger seat come round corner and a car is stopped dead in front slam on brakes hit it at about 15mph but mangle the front end up.
3. mate spinning a civic on a roundabout (he can't drive)
raining, he thinks he can take this roundabout at whatever speed! so goes in fast, back starts sliding out, front goes UP the roundabout curbe onto grass and miss the masive blackandgrey arrows sign by about 1/2 a foot then spin back onto roundabout and facing about 5 car's that have stopped.
4. race with bike in rx7
just got rx7, take it for a spin wit bro in law come up to a roundabout where there is a big long straight after it, a bike overtakes looks behind and stick's his thumb up, so we go at it, come off roundabout boot it ass slides right out, correct it and me and this bike are going up the middle of a 2 lane road (cars coming towards and going our way) racing full power through the middle of all these car's
5. coming back from cinema, 160mph in rx7 before ex tells me to slow down.
6. show a scooby the way
goin up to a mates house, i have this scooby on my ass for about 10 minutes, swerving boosting then dumping all over my ass get to a dual carriageway just annhialate him in the rx7. great!
7. Just got the 300zx, clocks where still in km so mate wanted me to do 112mph so it showed 180 on clocks he was takin a vid on his fone, then a van doing about 80mph pulled out dead in front of me without looking slammed on brakes my mate went into the dash, front of car nearly touched floor brakes where on that hard and i pulled right nearly hit central barrier and just missed him!
8. 300zx, on way back from southend in a deserted service station car park, sit there doing donuts for about 2-3 minutes.
9. on way back from jap fest, 160mph race with a supra in broad daylight. more to go but had to slow for traffic.
10. vintage one, me and my mates heavy modded civics in dartford tunnel.
we where going up to gaydon, really sunny lovely day, had a mate following in a dif car, me and my mate got side by side, and did about 5mph slowing EVERY car down behind us, so there was a massive gap infront, got to edge of tunnel both booted it neck and neck all the way through with the VTi's engine's screaming their little nut's off all the way through the tunnel, it sounded mad never forget that!
11. rx7 backfire,
rx7 used to backfire shotgun style, like SERIOUSLY Loud, had a hole in lower intake manifold gasket, driving through a high street, looked right, car backfired and some bloke was with his bird gettin cash from cash machine and he jumped a MILE when it backfired hahaha so funny.

lol i've only got the one and that was goin 80 down some b roads come to a gradual 50 degree corner, was a wwet nite and i was tired as it was about 1 am, something was in the road looked like a tyre or something i swerved to the left to avoid it the car felt like it was gonna roll so i spun the wheels to the right and then next thing i remember was the road about 20 ft infornt of me and a feild every were else. I the proceed to so a semi circle in teh feild sideways and hit the bank, the car rolled six times and landed on its roof. the amazing thing was when the amblance came to check me over the blood on me was from a rabbit i mauled on the roll which was on the back seat, the cops just laughed and was amazed that i came out with out a scratch. But the thing that made me laugh was that it was in a mk3 escort. Ne way about an hour later the aa turned up and rolled the car backon its wheels and before the gezzer could drag it out i got in started it up and drove it out the feild and to my house without a problem.
but then when the scrappy came to pick it up and looked at it the right supesion and all that ahd snapped of the chassis and was pined against the bulk head right infornt of the driver, thats when i relised how close to death i came.

Got a few:
Spinning my nova with 3 bald tyres and one tyre with 8psi in round a blind corner on a busy road oops
Driving around a local roundabout that is known for being slippy in my corsa this time, sideways halfway in then overcorrected and hit that 'grippy red stuff' on the exit sent me straight towards a metal railing should've crashed but sum how stopped
In my civic on sunday chasing 4 hotties in a 330ci cab for about 2 miles that was funny as feck
Another one in my corsa, was going round a big motorway exit roundabout, beasting it in the wet (needed to go out clubbing ) some nobber pulls out of b&q car park into both fuckin lanes, never heard tyres make such a noise thought I was gonna die, was doing probably 80ish and the car was all over the place while I was attempting to pump the brakes

Think the worst has to have been in Skyline.
Was doing about 80 back along the M25 from Southend, pissing down with rain when I saw something approaching quickly on the outside lane, so at 80mph I decided to drop to third.
Dropped into 3rd planted foot & good 'ol RWD sent me left, then right etc all over the shot.
Scary thing was i was in the middle lane & was going sideways back & forth so much I nearly hit the lorry in the slow lane & the car i was gonna race on the outside lane.
OJC's mate was holding on for dear life, luckily it straightened up & we pootled home at 60mph, until a Cossie came past anyways
