I wasn't driving when it happened just to clarify...I was co-pilot

We were blasting down a twisty dirt road out in the desert between Wittmann and Surprise in my friend's '93 Legacy wagon(he's driving) (4x4, auto). We enter a sweeping S turn at around 50mph...mid way through we hit a patch of gravel and the back end lets loose on him...he over corrects (and hits the breaks ), and we end up doing a few skidding turns before we hit the embankment, which launches the car up at an angle (almost flipped the car ) we do a 180 and are left sitting there going WTF? (I knew as soon as we hit the gravel that it wasn't gonna end well, and made sure I was braced for impact) thankfully no one was hurt and the car only suffered minor damage to the steering rack (and a broken windshield)

need less to say I no long rally with that friend while he is driving...I trust my skills waaaay more than his

I so much wanted to get a new one of them, but they had to stop making them. I ended up with a '94 4x4 pickup instead. Maybe better for me seeing the way I drive on back roads and in the snow.

A freind who usto have a rally racing team wanted me to drive for him after one snowy drive from Omaha to Minneapolis. Seams I wasn't much behind his usual dry road time for the same trip. He nicknamed me Jedi driver after that trip. To him it looked like I was steering before the truck was effected by the road condition changes. What I finally got through his noggin was I was minutely feeling the vehicle respond to the road and steering to that. I was changing the steering before the change in the road conditions could fully effect the direction the body of the truck was going. Because of that the truck went in a nearly straight line despite hitting ice patches and snow drifts. I should have taken him up on the offer, but Aspergers got in the way as that was change and new...

If you want to rally drive, find a large flat dirt area where you can setup some cones. Learn to do corners at faster and faster speeds, feeling how the car changes in it's handling. There will be 4 to 5 different ways it will drive through the corner and changing power input multiplies that. Each will have it's own steering input needed to keep it in the grove around the corner. You need to know how to read what the car is doing in relationship to the road, and respond the right way. You will need to know how to change your response when the car changes from one mode to another as it goes through the turn. A straight road is a curve with an infinite radius.

Driving at faster than hydroplaning speeds though puddles is another way to learn seat of the pants reading of your car. Pay attention to hour your butt is pushed around and vibrated by the car. Learn to feel when a wheel looses grip and regains it. The vibration from each wheel changes as it goes from being in good contact with the road to slipping and there is a progression between the states. The vehicle will also minutely change in direction as the balance of well stuck to slipping wheels has changed. Eventually you will know which wheel or wheels are loosing or have lost grip. With that you can make the small steering input changes to keep the vehicle on track.
