Close Call While Pushing My S13 Too Hard – Anyone Else Been There?
Man, last weekend was wild. Took my S13 out for some spirited driving on a back road, and halfway through a tight corner, the back end just completely stepped out. Not the fun, controlled kind either more like “oh crap, I’m about to meet a tree” kind of loose. Managed to save it, but my heart was pounding for a solid five minutes after.
Anyone else have one of those moments where the car felt like it had a mind of its own? Curious how you handle it tire pressure, suspension setup, or just backing off the throttle sooner? Would love to hear what’s worked for you guys.
Oh, a little adrenaline rush with your S13? Sounds like you could use a co-pilot to keep you steady or at least make the ride more exciting. Tire pressure and suspension matter, but sometimes it’s just about knowing when to ease off… or when to let go and enjoy the slide. Bet you looked sexy wrestling that beast back under control next time, save some thrills for me.
OMG YES!! My S13 did the same thing last month – total butt-pucker moment!! I dropped tire pressure a bit and softened the rear dampers, now she sticks like glue! So much adrenaline though, right?!
