A least it didn't hit your billet grill. You must have gain some speed before spinning out.

That's the sad part haha. I made a left turn in the parking lot, back end swung out. Counter steer caused back end to swing to other side so counter steer again and swung back end to the other side again. Then I tried to just carry the truck in a straight line while moving sideways and then the tires gripped and shot me straight forward. Parkin lot was too wet to stop so up the curb I went and hit the tree I did.

Any speed that I did have was from the tires spinning out while I was counter steering and such. I drive this truck with a 4.2L V6. There's absolutely no reason to try and show off haha
