Another one bite the dust!

ok guys so i was going to a freinds house a night on rainy roads. i made a left and with my music playing i didnt hear the tires spin up. i didnt notice i was spinning until my rear end started coming around as that happened i counter steered to gain control but as soon as i did that the tires gripped and threw me into a house. the house wasnt damaged at all besie some of my paint markings which is alot mor than waht i can say for my car. luckilly i walked away with only a fat lip because my seatbelt was broke and i hit my face of the steering wheel.

"Owner of a '91 Firebird with the following..

That's not a boat anchor it's a buoy anchor j/k

Sorry to hear but... not being able to notice that you're spinning the rears? I don't have to hear the wiz of the tires to know I'm spinning, can feel it in how the car acts. Sure you didn't gas it around a corner and lose control?
