My wife was probably 7-8 months pregnant at the time, but the snow was good enough that she said she would feel bad if she didn't let me go.....her mother was visiting at the time anyway...for some reason her mother wasn't as understanding.

Anyway, on 476 near Plymouth meeting, there is a very, very slight turn before you get to the 1st tollbooth. I wasn't even starting to turn yet and the azz end just broke loose. That was possibly the slowest, longest, and most unintentional 720 or 1080 or whatever, that anyone could possibly do. I could not do anything with the throttle, any of my inputs garnered no response.
I think I drove in that snow, too! It started on a Saturday night and no one plowed anything until Sunday night, right?

That day was awesome. As soon as I woke up and saw the snow, I got some breakfast and ran out for a drive.

I also got the back end loose and spun around on public roads, but I'm not sure if my experience is applicable here because I did it on purpose...
