so this is what happened. i do this very often.. im around my friends house and there is this corner i always like to "drift" on. and yes u can drift an xA dont try this wiht ur own car!! ive been doing this for quite a while.. so today i turned into the into the corner and my car fliped!! So story behind all this. im on the straight away going about 45mph i heeltoe into the corner e-brake at about 25mph.. my car tiped and it fliped over. luckly before it fliped over i slow the car down enough. so the car like tiped over very slowly. i was waiting in the car as it fliped. it was like a 2second flip thats how long untill it touched the ground. it was a weird experience. i had freinds come over and push the car back to its 4 wheels. i am alive and well no damage to my body. but the car is pretty messed up.

Get a Trans Am and hit the country roads, Frog!


Sorry I just got done watching Smokey and the Bandit. Man I wish I still had my Mustang. ANYWAY, sorry about the flip. But it was your fault. Driving fast is one thing. Trying to spin a car with your emergency brake is just senseless.

first off that was retarded. second, if it took a whole two seconds to actually tip over, you should have turned the wheel to counter steer. third, stay off the road

yeah that really sucks that happened, im not here to judge you or anything tho. I dont know if this is posible for you. but check around like local junk yards or something. If you can find any xa's that have been like totalled or anything try to get some parts that you need replaced. that will prolly be a little cheaper when you are doing your repairs. just a suggestion tho. not sure if it will work..

daddy is going to get the belt out on you for being so careless. I wouldnt worry about the car damage as much as I would the large red welts that should appear all over your A$$ deservedly

Okay, okay, okay... first off, parts... find them in a junkyard or at the dealership or in the classifieds here on SL.

Second, you can't drift an xA... you can "drift" it. (Quotation marks intentional.)

Third, you're lucky to not be hurt. But we're all glad you're okay.

Fourth, it's spelled "flipped." Two p's.
