[DeTomaso] 930 crashes

I do remember this stuff in '78. I believe many of the first 930s  
were sold at Iverson in Newport Beach, and that particular dealership  
saw a lot of rear end damage and the news quickly reached some of the  
motor press located nearby . I have seen two of these happen-one 930  
and one 911. And know two other guys personally who made the same  
mistake.  The one I witnessed was a guy banzaiing a hairpin on a  
service road. Chickened out, off the gas, unweighted the rear and  
backed it in.  Just like on a motorcycle, "stay in the gas" can save  
you in many situations. Dave Ferrato
