Default spirited wet weather driving

O.K. i am most likely the only ******* on this site that likes wet weather for the sole reason of being able to really pound on a car, and see how it does.
The other night, it poured, and I mean cats dogs, and turtles outside. I had to make a "run" to the store for some smokes... LOL, a "run"

Turns out, i like the wet weather handleing of the outie more than in the dry... easier to put where you want it.
The only downside, is, wow, this thing torque steers like a bitch.

yeah, but rain really helps in the whole sliding thingy we love so much...
Ya know its weird, I had to enter corners at absolutly stupid speeds to get any sort of slip from the tires...
And by stupid speeds, i mean entering a 30MPH corner at oh say 50mph... then, and only then, would it begin to slip.. if it werent for the car seats in the back flying all over the place, I would have been able to do more, but with the whole carseat flying at my head deal, it was kinda tough... LOL
