How embarassing
 

I was coming back from a short errand earlier and ended up in front of a 90's 300zx at a light. We were both turning left and it had sprinkled just a bit, just enough to get the road damp, really. When the light turned green I pulled out and mid corner I blipped the throttle a bit to induce a bit of oversteer fun. I feathered the throttle to slide a bit. I was going 10-15 mph max, no other cars behind except the Z who had sat at the light after green so he was no where near me. I had straightened out and was coming out from under the other side of the overpass. I looked into my rearview just in time to see him loop the car the same place I had gotten sideways. I'm fairly sure that the only thing that got bruised was his ego fortunately, but he was surrounded by cars when he did his 270 and ended up pointing the wrong way. It was a little funny, but I felt sorry for him at the same time and thankful that no one had been hit. Thank goodness it didn't happen to me.

Just another example of why it's not a good idea to play in traffic. I'm a bad boy.

If he only had the engine in the right spot, everything woulda been fine. :D

The worst case of that happened up at Alice's Restaurant in Woodside, CA. This complete poser on a mid-90's Gixer 750; I'm mean complete with all the racing decals, small antenna on the tail cone like the expensive teams have to talk to their guy during the race; and matching leathers and so forth. He takes off in front of about 40-50 of us, and at 8:30 in the morning most there are fairly serious riders, turns down Hwy 84 towards La Honda, gooses it to brapp the pipes and promptly loses rear wheel traction on the slightly damp and sandy road surface, low sides the bike, and tears the right side fairings all to pieces at no more than 20 miles per hour. At first, everyone simply stared, but then when it was obvious he wasn't hurt, the laughter started and went on for 15-20 minutes.

Always maintain environmental awareness, including where the audience is if any.
