Which DR's did you have on at the time?

Mickey tompson ET streets 2. Car is not to bad, just needs to be cleaned up and checked for underside damage. You can't really see in the pics but there is a concrete drain under the car.

agreed.. it could have been much worse.

I was driving 55 and the rain stopped.. but I think the tires get soaked and the type of asphalt makes the car spin.. I was driving straight across the a bridge and the rear just kicked out and spin around fast like Godzilla kicked the rear end. I have felt hydro planing before but this was instant total loss of control. Glad to see everything tune out ok. I think there was other crap on that ground because another car spun out in the same area a week later, but DR's and wet ground is a no no from now on.

damn, sorry to see that. Doesnt look like there is much body damage, so you lucked out there. Drags and Rain = fail.

glad you ok. i almost had the same deal sat. with my DR. it got squirrel with me but it straighten up, was thinking god had my 3yo and 11yo with me.

 

[BubbaRATM]

good thing the road ranger showed up to help out.

minor damage and could have been alot worse. Thats my main concern because the nearest track to me is 3 hrs away. I think i will buy a set of wheels and an electric impact and a small jack and be safe. Glad to see it wasn't bad.

 

[08gt4u]

[MELLOWYELLOW06]

Sorry to see that. I got the NT05's on right now and not looking forward to the drive home because it looks like its going to star

 

[stkjock]

[red_baron06]

Nitto 555R drag radils + rain FTW.

Better than street tires in my experience!

 

[CraigNnem]
