Glad you're ok man! I've totaled 2 trucks and 1 M3 and wrecked (but not totaled) a few other cars, don't get my started when it comes to my motorcycles haha. Hopefully I don't wreck my Evo lol. My question is, how do you lose control by hitting the breaks after a 1-2 gear run? Really curious as to how this happened. By the way, traction control in an M3 doesn't work. Haha, drive safe dude!

After running through my head over, and over, I've come to the conclusion that the slight bend in the road when I hit the brakes cause me to loose control.
