Default Lost Control of S at 130mph Racing Ferrari on I95.

I was racing a Ferrari convertible .. dont know what model it was but it was nice. we were both around a 90 mph with tops down, Then we both took off.. He took me at first about 2 car lengths then I caught up and passed him about 1 car length. there was traffic i was cutting in and out of lanes we were just about even around 130mph... then i did a stupid move .. i cut around an ambulance too quickly lost control of the car. .. did 2 360's at 130mph, During first spin I hit a crown vic. he hit my left rim and quarter panel. then he kept on driving didnt even stop. everything happend so fast. Car shut off during the 2nd spin.. regain control during the second spin, I locked on the brakes. Thank god I didnt run into a wall or any other cars hitting me. Barley had enough momentum to pull to the side of the road. When i got to the side of the road i got out the car thinking i had seriously totaled the car. i looked around the car, the only damage was the rear quarter panel right above the rim, and all 4 of my tires was shot, Riped off treading on 2 tires but they were still inflated., Flat spots on the other 2 tires. THANK GOD I AM ALIVE I THOUGHT TO MYSELF.Then all of a sudden some white car pulled behind me on the side of the road. Me thinking it was the car that i hit. Then two dudes got out the car came up to me .. me Still in shock adrenline pumping heart was racing. I thought these 2 dudes was gonna kick my ass.. some big MOFO's .Both dudes said i saw the whole thing. He was like that was so ing awesome. You held that car together. Then he was like i give you mad respect for handeling that car. great driving..on regaining control! I was then in relief I didnt get my ass kicked. They were not from the car that i hit. I got back in my car started driving home. The car felt like it had huge air bubbles on each tire. I thank god I am Alive. . No more high speed racing for me. My Wake up call.

so you raced past an ambulance, hit a car, tore up your tires, then drove home.

a wake up call? i'd expect a call from the police concerning that hit and run you just perpetrated.

i'm not even going to start a preaching session, but please for the sake of all that is good, go turn in your drivers license and ride a bicycle for a while.

you raced past an ambulance!

i could freaking scream right NOW.


honestly, what kind of posts did you expect to get when you start a thread like this? i am banging these keys just about as hard as i can while typing this reply.

I hope you made this up. But if it's true, you are one lucky SOB. You better find a cure for cancer or somthing.

This sounds too awful to be real, but if it is you are the biggest moron alive.

I wish you had destroyed your car because you don't deserve it or the license to operate it.

Jackass.

It is people like you who make safe drivers like me and most of the other people on this board look bad. Now go crawl back under the rock you came out of and don't come back. Seriously.

Lemme see if I get this right:
You're racing on public streets upwards of 130 MPH! You do the goofy "two step" with an emergency vehicle (ambulance) and hit another vehicle to boot and most likely did some property damage, too. You were glad those two guys didn't kick you ass (personally, I think they shoulda kicked your ass, your face, your head ................... ).
I'm not sure if you are here to brag or to tell us how totally stupid you were???!!! Are you here for sympathy ('cause you ain't gettin' any from me) or are your telling this so others can "see the light"?

In any case, may the rest of your life have a little more meaning from this point on.
