[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 649689, member: 60724"] The only possible way I can see that happening at 15MPH is if you lost control AND hit a curb or ditch almost immediately and that caused the flip. Aaron, can you give more info? I lost control of my ST last winter. Was on dry road, driving up a hill and hit black ice. She swerved, and the backend came out and around, and I went off the road onto a small grassy bank. I was doing between 30 and 40 when it happened, and went around about 120 deg before coming to rest (that was after some fish tailing). I might even have been going faster...I think we tend to underestimate our speed on such events. Never felt to me like the ST was going to roll though. Oh, and my ST was fine. TJR [/QUOTE]
