Yep. 65mph trail-braking heavily into a right-hand turn on a loose-gravel surface. Lost it right at the apex. My first spin ever.

Spun almost a full 360 on Highway 17 (on the way to Santa Cruz) in the rain. I was driving the speed limit and tires just decided they didn't want to grip while starting a gentle downhill left-hand turn.
I performed poorly (ie. braked/slid) instead of attempting to give it gas and turn to the right, but nonetheless I stopped the car without hitting anything or anyone.
Turns out the culprit was very worn rear tires and a bad tire-set up all around. I'm working on correcting the problem now that I've discovered what caused it.
