      i HATE people who go slow on on ramps... but thats why the shoulder is there! i've even passed people like that on on ramps in my mom's 4cyl minivan... its called an acceleration lane for a reason!

      glad to hear you guys were OK, but next time, pass the slow dude, don't hit the brakes in a turn!

          Indeed, glad you were all OK, the car looks pretty messed up. Go autocrossing and then racing and you'll know how to trail brake, avoid the roll and the car next time! Besides you'll have a blast and go broke in the meantime.

              I sold it and its a terrorist top just pop it up and shoot those bunnies. There was no room to pass and I know how to drive you just have to see the onramp it goes from a quick uphill to a fast downhill while turning you catch a little air. Those rims aren't the ones I rolled with I had 15" falkens with 215/50. Witch are now on my escort gt clone.
