 yeah I am so glad that I survived. If I were to have gone over that wall, it was about a 50 foot drop to the ocean.... and I can't even imagine how cold that water was at that time when it was 50 outside!

Thank you Richie, I appreciate the compliment. I'm sure you already know that a way to lessen the blind spot is to face the mirror out just enough that you can't see the ass of your eclipse anymore. It is terrifying watching that video.
Thank god there wasn't an asian woman driver driving her BMW X5 she got from Daves used auto lot going 100mph in the area you ended up in. You'd be fucked for sure. It's strange; you see car accidents and it's never really an urgent thing but knowing a person who narrowly avoids it; even over the internet and actually seeing it can really put things into perspective. Stay safe and stay the fuck away from your friend. I swear Hondas are out to get us goddammit. Can't even trust your damn friends! They all hate! On a side note: the hell was going on with that juke? I feel like you were about to go after the juke and put him in his place before this mishap occured.

Dude you Florida drivers scare the shit out of me! I was in Florida this weekend and y'all are crazy on I-75! Bitches cutting me off and riding my ass when I was already doing 90mph. Glad to see you're ok and to be honest it looked pretty damn cool on camera.

I have replayed it like 20 times you need to add the phrase "Professional Driver" on the bottom of the video. You really kept it under control and were just lucky another car didn't hit you.

Man, I just remember trying to cut the wheel back and forth trying to keep it straight when I first felt it lose traction, then when saw that I was going sideways, I cut it all the way to the right and once it finally caught and kinda swung me back around, I was breathless. I could have sworn that I was going to hit at least one thing, but I came out of it scratch free. I got back in my car after I stopped shaking and kissed the steering wheels and felt up my dashboard... Lol

I wished I would have got up with you Richie. I was in Lake Panasoffkee visiting some family I hadn't seen in a while. I could have rolled down to Tampa and saw this action for myself. Dude you're underwear were laying on the side of the road where you almost crashed.

It would have been to have you come with us man! You could have seen this hardcore drifting in person lol. And yeah I forgot that I took my underwear off when I got out of the car. I guess I was still in shock and wasn't really sure what I was doing.

Bahahahahahahaha! Well damn an altima coupe? Still ain't shit on our eclipses thats for sure. I thought it was the newer 2D accord from the tails but bleh. I wonder what was going through that juke drivers head. Did he seriously think he was going to survive. Shit storm indeed. Again; good job surviving. I saw your other comment. I'm sorry but I would have flipped shit if I suddenly started doing reverse drifts across several lanes in a crowded highway. No way in FUCK would I have the sense to cut the wheel back the opposite side. I'd probably do something stupid like put my seatbelt on or some shit. Yeah I'm one of those crazy Florida drivers. It's survival of the fittest around this state. Shit, when it rains there are literally 10-20 accidents on I-95 in one county! It's like heavy torrental 5 inch rain means GO RACECAR MODE IN YOUR SHITTY CAMEREY WITH BALD TIRES RAWR! Edit: That underwear should be in the hall of fame. SUCCESSFUL DRIFTING OF FWD CAR SUCCESS!  Speaking of which; we should have a big gathering of the south Florida and Tampa group in one area Richie! It'd be fun as hell! Me and the SF group were talking about that. Soooo...ya.

Lol Kazi, I'm sure you would have survived if this happened to you. I feel like most of us would have responded the same way, it's just basic instinct.
Oh and when it rains, don't even bother driving. People don't understand how rain affects cars and drive the same way they would on a sunny day. There are some seriously sumb people out here.

And I knew no one was going to believe me if I told them that story. I had no idea that my friend was recording so when he told me he got it on tape, I got really excited lol. We all watched it when we got to the strip and when we saw me slide across the lanes, everyone all together goes, "OhhhhhOHHHHHHHHH!!!" hahaha And Tosh would shit all over me if that made it on the show lol

Lol I am indeed EXTREMELY lucky man. It wasn't my friends fault though, I just got caught up in chasing after the Juke with everyone (we had about 10 cars rolling out together) that I didn't pay as much attention as I should have. Trust me though, I've learned my lesson lol

Definitely keep this video as a reminder and memento. Plus it's just totally epic and I think you can get some poon tang from this in the future. So...thats that.
Anyway; How were your tires after this ordeal? I would check the alignment on your wheels after something like that to make sure everything is still in place. And I know what you mean about getting caught up in spanking losers. Whenever a ricer honda flies by me or an old toyota or some shit I get consumed with blood rage and I slam to teach them a lesson. I just never like it when someone even thinks for a second they are as good as my eclipse. It's kinda like having a sexy wife and then some guy tries to act like he is good enough to have her. You chop that dudes balls and head off and kill his pride in twenty seven different ways so he knows he has no chance in hell of being as good as you! As far as the instinct, I hope so; but I pray I never find myself in this situation. What you have gone through was an EXTREMELY good result especially considering that there were 10+ cars in that close vicinity. Skilled for avoiding on hitting the altima at the last minute, lucky that you didn't swerve into him anyway, lucky that you maintained your speed for a couple more seconds, lucky you didn't flip over, lucky that you hit no other cars going 80+mph, and VERY lucky you didn't hit the wall anyway. Your car deserves a good fucking and a good waxing after this. As far as rain and stupid people. Natural selection. Ftw.
