yea i remember a little while back (year and a half-ish) when i got my liscense...4 days into it and it rained...i wanted to see just what everyone meant by "camaros being terrible in the rain" so i tapped it just after a turn and did a 180 into oncoming traffic, almost tagging a mailbox. then i got pulled over after and the cop let me go, see how scared i was.

youve got to learn your vehicle, there comes a point where its wet out and in many other conditions where you will begin to feel it ready to break loose on you.

and yea, lifting off the gas will get you traction back...putting your foot on the brake can tend to make matters worse.
