Ouch, sorry to hear about your crash Doom, luckily no one got injured. You probably had the SRM on as well. When I first got the car and was trying to get used to the power, I had a serious and accidental burned out while taking a turn at a traffic light. I was in control the whole time, the car was still revving though my foot was off the gas. VDC OFF + SRM would do what you experienced.

you know that rev did stay up for a wile i thought i was imagining things but since you brought it up i do recall that happening can anybody answer why??

You shouldn't have turned off VDC especially when you're tired from work. As for the 1-3 mph in 1st gear and a little gas to get to 2nd story, that sounds like BS to me. I think that you just don't want to admit you've done something stupid and it was your fault so you change up on the story.

Just my opinion.

Listen guy if i wanted to drift i would have sad that i crashed drifting i think it would have sounded cooler, but thats not what happened.

A couple of these stories sound like the obvious reminder: never go when you can't see - unfortunately not all for the 370Z drivers though.

If someone blocks my vision, I just wait. I'm never in that much of a hurry.

However, I have (lightly) curbed my left rear twice trying to turn in a limited space - something about the car makes it hard for me to make a tight corner well.

I sharted in the passenger side seat one night when my gf was driving me home drunk. I dont know who was pissed more, my gf because thats her regular seat or stanley steamer carpet cleaning for having such a $hitty change order!!

You should always keep your VDC on!

However, I will continue to turn mine off as I've done since 2009 without any incident.

I drive with VDC off 50% the time... I like driving a little spirited now and then and drifting / drag racing occasionally. I honestly don't see how you can lose control like that unless you just can't drive at all... gotta feather the throttle son lol

Go buy a beater 240sx to practice the basics before you end up ruining your nice car

Too late its already a beater 370z i did drive it in snow on summer stock tiers no bull got stuck only one time passing by person helped me to get out and in the rain lots of times, all i have to do now is learn how to drift it. I still dont fully understand it my self, always thinking Wtf went wrong?
