This one is my favorite because it shows how clueless the driver is before any damage even occurs.

Worth it bro. His rich Daddy or Crypto is going to pay for a new one anyway.

Yup, setting launch control while in a corner... SMART!

Good thing he spent that 5 seconds turning off traction control.

This one is particular impressive because of how slowly it occurred and how little is done to stop it. High-speed fishtail is stupid enough, but this was just excruciating to watch.

If your wing isn’t up how will people know you have it?

Porsche tried its hardest to make the car do it all for you, then he turned it all off.

*I did the spoiler thing in the Crossfire to troll other cars when I saw them. I found it super funny.

i didnt mind it..... course i dont much care for 911s, im always happy to watch a douchecanoe fuck up... and going by how little he did to try and save it the dude was a crash waiting to happen.... probably for the best he got it done and over with before getting up to highway speed

Literally the first thing I recall in my Audi’s manual for launch control is “Make sure the car is pointed straight”.

Dumbass. Of course that was obvious already since he drives around with the spoiler up.

Maybe wrong tire pressures?

I love the 911, so I’m not gonna lie it hurt a little bit.

The Dutch police was showcasing their new Pursuit Audi A6 diesel wagons to a reporter, when the cop that was driving it slid it into a bollard on the outside of a turn. He blamed it on the warm tires, saying that they have less traction...

Dummy.

I have heard that some all season M+S tires can melt at certain condition enough to loose traction badly but I doubt that police would use these in Netherlands.

It’s almost like he wasn’t looking back to check for traffic......he was looking at the ZL1 for pointers on how to screw up.

It’s such low speeds, it could really be “lesson well learned” territory.

Like honestly, i bet his car has a few scratches, maybe a crack in the bumper.

But also, yeah. Honestly if you can’t catch that slide.....oof i dunno what to tell you.

Can’t these dweebs at least do it with style? He didn’t even try to counter the back end coming around. Just drove right into the barrier.

My story. Last day of high school. I decide to lay in wait for my friends across from the school in my woefully under-powered 403ci ‘79 Trans Am. Determined to let everyone see the glory of the magnificent chicken and hear the squall of the spinning tires, the second I see them coming out of the parking lot, I floor it and put the car into a left-turn oversteer. It’s a thing to behold until the back end starts to come around and find myself pointing off the right side of the road. Still into the gas, I counter with full left lock and the car responds but I’ve over corrected and I’m pointing at the left side of the road (still never left my lane though). Finally coming off the gas, but stupidly getting on the brake, I steer right again but now the weight has transferred to the front tires and I’m in understeer and heading right off the road and down an embankment about 10 feet below. Oh crap, I’m going to slam the front end into the ground!

Somehow though serendipity, the car rode it out and entered the ditch at a slight angle so the car didn’t nose in, but leveled out and I found myself mired on mushy ground. The guys who saw me came running over and, though I’ve dumped my car off the road most ignominiously, they congratulated me on my counter-steering effort and suggested that next time, I don’t keep on the gas for so long after the first left-hand drift turn. Anyway, they gave me a hand pushing the car out of the muck and mire and back to a spot where I could re-enter the road.

I drove home in my muddy F-body at 5-10 miles below the limit with the realization that this turned out so much better than it ever should.
