did you pop the clutch in or something?
everytime i lost the rear on my old silver one.... with the bias vlave settign to blame.... There was no way you were going to catch that!!!! you have to be doing a fair rate to get it to lock, or boot the brake like a cunit

na adam the ABS kicked it as soon as I touched the brake, the front wheels went in to one rut in the snow the back into another, I tried steerin into the slide but it was havin none of it, was doin 25mph max when I braked. the car seemed to speed up when it started to slide, was then when I though shit and hoped for the best, could have been much worse I suppose, still gutted bout it though.
