Question s2000 spin out

so i recently bought a s2000 almost a month ago. so i ended up spining out because someone cut me off on a slight turn. so my car went side ways and i hit the curb and hit a pole. messed up my left fender and axle and popped out my bumper. the pole i hit is bent like a U. so i saw a s2000 at a car meet spin out and i thought it was the driver, now im wondering it if its the car.... and heres a video how i kinda spun out.

Sounds like you lifted and lost the rear. If you didn't lift it wouldn't have spun.

a bit crazy to think that some of the people driving s2k's now were 5 when they first hit the road here in the states. just an observation.

It's both. This car has always been tail-happy.

I think that's just some random video that the OP claims to be his.
