Well. The power was out and I went for a cruise one night. I was speeding, but not excessively. About 80km/h in a 60km/h, on that road which is about 1km of back paddock with not a house in sight.
Anyway, since the street lights were out because the power was out, that downhill corner comes up out of no where, I put on my brakes, they didn't lock at first until I started getting to the slope and it must have unweighted the car or something, locked the front wheels and had no steering. No ABS remember.
So it went straight on, piled through that tree, and ended out the other side of the grass. Note that I slid down the grass, not drove down it.
I'm going to buy some new tyres in a few weeks, the ones on now are some no-name brand that are ok in the dry, but have no grip in the wet at all.
