On Sunday, deb and I were out in the spider doing some shopping. We were headed to Gander Mountain for yet more fishing gear, which out 22 towards the Pittsburgh Airport. I took the Montour Run exit pretty fast. It's surprisingly tight considering the short entrance lane, but it wasn't enough to really worry me. The problem was a very bumpy transition from the asphalt of US22 to the concrete of the ramp. The bumps got the rear hopping, and combined with a bit of trail braking, the ass starting swinging around. With the gaurdrail looming, my instincts overrode any desire to heroically drive out of the spin, and I just stayed on the brakes and brought it to a screeching halt. A quick 3-pointer before we could get T-boned by another car on the ramp and we were on our way. Surprisingly, Deb and I were both pretty calm throughout (well, at least she looked calm.) My pulse barely accelerated. It was fun more than anything. It was the first time I spun a car (unintentionally) on dry pavement. My alfa friend is convinced it's the Kumho's (Ecsta 712s) fault (ignoring the fact that I went into that turn too hot.) I do like the Kumho MXs (noticably stickier) on my Verde, but I'll probably try something different the next time I by new shoes for my ride.
