    I'm going to take this opportunity to interject a slightly off-topic rant against the "weekend toy" car.

    People who drive a nose-heavy, front engine, automatic transmission, mass-market highway appliance day after day after day will climb into a weekend toy and expect to drive like Schumacher. How? When you climb into a machine you haven't driven in a month, how familiar are you with the controls, with the limits, with the seat-of-the-pants feedback?

    How do you get to Carnegie Hall?

    Would you walk around with an I-pod for a month, then expect to play a violin concerto cold?

    When you use a Ferrari as a daily driver, not only do you enjoy the experience more often, but you enjoy the experience *more*. Rather than hanging on by your fingernails, you're in two-way communications with the machine and with the road. You're driving the car the way it was meant to be driven, because you're familiar with the car's --- and your --- limits.

    It becomes a performance car, rather than a ride on "Space Mountain".


    Okay, we now return you to your regularly scheduled thread.

    Not sure, went thru some curves and then were on a straight section of road and it made a hard right, hit a curb went in the air thru a fence and brick wall then into a tree.
    I may have been exceding the speed limit :(

    It felt like the front end pulled right more than the back end coming around.

    The whole thing happend pretty fast so not sure what the real reason was. you could see tire marks in the middle of the street that all of the sudden go right.
    There was not any investigation and i didnt get a ticket, police report says that i went off the road at high rate of speed. Great way to spend the thanksgiving holiday :)
