Close call yesterday...

First, glad you're safe!!

Second, I'm really impressed..........you were going 60 with 2 up and stopped in 15' while keeping it upside.

Nice piece of work!

The only way that's happening is a sudden stop.

60 MPH is 88 feet/sec, reaction time 132 feet(unless you're clenching your rectum)stopping distance 172 ft, total distance 304.

But fishaholic is right, awesome keeping it shiny side up.
 
10 to 15' of skid mark that does not mean he stopped in that distance as that is impossible without hitting a brick wall. Probably the last big heave on the rear brake with JDs size 14 boots caused the rear to lock up.
 
I started breaking long before I started skidding, I just realized I wasn't stopping fast enough... breaked harder and skidded
