That was good thinking punching it while turning. Nothing can go wrong there.

I had the exact thing happen in front of me!

I was caravaning with three other GTO's. One of them was an 04 who just had a new hood put on. We were waiting in the left turn lane and got the arrow. The driver of the 04 was the second in line and thought "Ill let the tires loose" just as he drove around the corner. Needless to say the car did a massive fishtail, jumped the median and hit a road sign. The sign actually went into the car and gave the driver a severe cut on the arm and the front of the GTO (including the brand new hood) was all torn up. The car was leaking anti freeze. I dont know what happened to the car or the driver afterwords.

Who hits the gas really hard with that kinda power going around a corner? Dumb-ass.

Idiot. I guarantee the T/C was off. Trust me, you don't peg one of those in a corner with the T/C off.
