man you speak as though I don't know how to control my car, she was under my control 100% of the slide. I cut the wheel hard left and gunned it up until 5k rpm and maintained it that that band until,my back end slid around behind me halfway through the turn. I shifted hard into second turning the wheel hard right and held it sideways before I pulled straight..no sway what so ever. So I wasn't any where near crashing my car. I've lost control of my car once in the rain and i know how that feels

PS - Powerslide - An American racing term for drifting that commonly refers to utilizing excessive horsepower to cause a loss of traction resulting in a drift.
