Question abour flipping
Not that I would every try this but my friend and I were having a conversation about what would happen if you were going really fast say about 90 in an open field and just cut the steering wheel all the way to the left. Would the car actually flip over? I figured it wouldn't and you'd just go completely out of control and skid all over the place like in the beginning of F&F.

The car wouldn't flip over, unless you hit something (like a wall), but it will most likely lose control & do some spinnin'. This considering your going 90MPH or so... If your going over 100, then that will be a much worst outcome.
If anyone were to try this, they better make sure that the road is COMPLETELY smooth.

That is a really really really dumb thing to try/do. What does it do? I understand burnouts, squealing tires, speeding, etc. But running that speed and then TRYING ON PURPOSE to spin around and loose control (because there's no way you have any control at that speed)is just asking for trouble. I can even understand running 25 or 30 mph and pulling the emergency brake and sliding a bit. This kinda tops things not to do if you have a brain. My .02 cents.
