the day me and my suby almost died
So im home from college for summer, decide to take the sti for a spin up by page mill out in the hills got a little too aggressive around a smooth turn started to sideways drift hit a curb and scraped up my new wheels then came across the opposite lane smashing on the brakes and slide through some gravel just barely dodging a huge telephone pole and sliding down a prolly about 70 degree hill into a small tree and some hanging branches...i was scared ****less!!! Im so lucky that that tree stoped me from rolling my car. thankfully AAA could pull it out easily and the worst that happened was a bunch of ugly scratches that I hope will be able to be buffered out...so does anyone know a good place to fix up my paint?

So even with a front LSD equipped STi, you could not control and recover from a slide?

The older guys are going to get their flame on
But, I'm just saying slow down... enjoy your car and hit up that T-Hill $100 track day!!!
Hopefully lesson learned. At one point or another we all have to learn through a similar experience. Glad your okay.
