I'm so fucking ashamed of myself Veeky Forums, would've been t-boned (i.e. completely fucked in a miat) had the truck driver not been attentive and swerved

This is why miata owners are fucking douchebags who bought in to a literal meme car that offers none of the things they bought it for aside from no roof

I did stall at the gate of a marine base when I was a new driver though and all the guards laughed at me.

>shitposter who knows nothing about cars gets triggered: the post

I've been to a lot of norcal meets, and I've spun out almost three times, every time I go to one of the weekday ramen meets
>first time was a year ago, braked hard in a tight downhill corner, rear end slid out and I spun out
>second time was in January, same area of the route but instead of breaking hard I hit some water (it rained earlier that day) and spun again, had my gf at the time with me
>third time was at an unplanned meet, same area of the route, went into the corner too quickly and braked too late, started to spin but managed to straighten myself out and continue

what kind of car do you drive?
