That was once, I pushed my limits too far, I knew it, I fucked up. Thank god I came out of the ordeal unharmed with no damage done to my car. I have learned a lot since that event 3 years ago. Not to mention I didn't have the proper setup at the time...stock small brakes and a misadjusted rear antisway bar causing massive understeer.

Re: *edit*?

I was surprised when I heard you had no broken suspension parts

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.

As soon as I got to the corner I realized there was no way I'd be making the corner with the setup I was running at the time. I saw the spot I had to hit going off the road and did all I could to just slow the car down. I was approaching a reducing-radius ~110 degree in 4th gear at ~120mph. I was shaken up pretty badly, I learned from my mistakes.

You mean coilover/shock tubes aren't supposed to snap in half while taking a hard corner?
