Not always true Casey. I took full responsibility for assuming that my front splitter was going to be my saving grace as far as downforce goes and sure as shit I went out there and got overly confident and went off doing about 70-80mph or so. Truth is our ego's get the best of us and nobody likes to admit when they f@#ked up or did something wrong.
I blamed the car at first myself but that was because I didn't really take into account what was going to change with me adding parts and not having full knowledge of what it will do for me. Just goes to show it's not always 100% of the time our ego's but rather not having enough knowledge about what we are doing wrong as drivers.
I do agree having a sub forum like that would be good though. I actually used that section on BARF after I got into a rear end collision on my F4i.

That bridge was slippery to just stand on, and there was no warning in the condition, but the driver needs to account for the level of grip he has and what the tire's strengths and weaknesses are.
There are conditions where the driver can do no more to prepare, and can't really be at fault. They don't really exist the the Bay Area but in those cases, choose to not drive.

Today saw a RYP AP2 with AP2V3 wheels pass by the main Kaiser building a couple times.
Can't specify the times because I was a bit distracted at the time of both sightings.
You were going west the first time, and east the second time.
