'72 240Z in college.... When I first bought it, it had worn tires and an auto trans (I later installed 4 speed manual).
Mid 80's... me and a buddy were cruising along on a rainy day doing about 55 and a good song came on the radio. I punched it and when it downshifted it instantly went into a high speed 360 degree spin with 2 lanes of oncoming traffic and traffic behind us... Somehow I gathered it up and somehow we avoided getting hit by any cars. Lesson learned..... Never mash the go fast pedal with bald tires on wet slick asphalt in lightweight car with auto trans and non posi rear end while in heavy traffic.
Had even scarier incidents in airplanes, on streetbikes, on motocross bikes and in a dirt track race car.
