My first day of ownership couple of years ago:
10.00am - Pick up nice shiny Sup from garage (with big grin on face )
10.10am - Cruising (it's my new pride & joy don't want to ding it)
10.15am - Oooo pull in 2nd gear is nice
10.20am - Building up bit of confidence now
10.25am - Look in mirror, BM behind me (hey!! I can take this guy )
10.28am - Approaching roundabout about 70ishhhh
10.28.23am - Ooooo back sliding
10.28.25am - Coming out of roundabout, now on other side of road (life flashes before me )
10.28.27am - Back on correct side of road, BM zooms past flashing , I park up for breather at edge of road
10.30am - I head home doing 40mph thinking SHIIIIT!!!! that was close, nearly crash car before even owning it for half hour.
Couple years on, thankful that I had no Turbo under the hood for my first cocky race in a rear wheel drive. (and the fact there was no one coming the other way when on other side of road, feeeewwwww)
Some live the tale, some don't. Moral of the story -
DON'T ACT A TWAT IN A HIGH POWERD CAR. (on ya first day)
