Lost control of car on onramp, Scary...... Options

[creis]

Today I was going to work (taking my usual rout to this site) and it was pirtty slick but not really bad, anyway I was going like 35 around a wide 90 degree corner and the back end started sliding out, it was not a big deal but all the sudded the back end just went, It slid into the dirt an stayed sideways half in the dirt/rocks and half on the road, i slide sidways for a bit then the back end went ever farther around. the back wheels just maid it back onto the road before the berriour, where i slid accross and stoped about a foot from the berriour on the other side (one lane road) i found myself speachless facing the stoped oncuming traffic, I slowly backed up, turned around and went on my way. when i got to work i did not see any damage to the car, but i was shaking like crazy. from now on i'm gana be taking that ramp VERY SLOWLY

for those of you who live near me its the onramp to I-5 right in frunt of montlake theatre. its an S shape (I slid at the first curve)

I just felt like telling the story to someone, anyone else had a close call like that, where it just kinda happend out of the blue?

hmm weight transfer always fun! there is the 90degree corner I hit at 80ish and drift all the time wet/dry. Get some people you know with RWD cars and go drifting and learn how to control your car better in a wide open area. I went out with 2 240's, a 7, and a A4, and all the stuff those guys showed/tought me helped me out so much.
