no, but did put her sideways a little bit last year with the crappy old tires that I no longer have.

I'll tell ya - when I kick this sucker in the pants she does move pretty quick, so you have to think before you act.

Be careful out there especially on cold wet days. I forgot just long enough to punch my silver car on such a day on performance summer tires and spun it out on an entrance ramp a few weeks ago. That car, like yours really goes when asked.
