I felt really bad for him when I drove over to his house and saw the aftermath. Sean is an excellent driver(RainMan) but it really was the perfect storm for a spinout.

Off-camber turn
Dip in the road mid-corner
Winter temperature
Summer tires
Mismatched front and rear tires
No safety-valve(DSC-DTC) features on the S2K
New GF in the passenger seat upsetting the perfect front/rear, passenger/driver balance
EDIT: Driving like a dip shit

Shouldn't the title to this really be: "Don't drive like a wanker when it's cold out and you have summer tires on your car"?
