I had a bit of an 'incident' today, that was a nice
back to reality. Damp road + Too much throttle = Sideways. Luckily it was a no harm, no foul incident; but a nice reality check none the less.

Ehhh no big deal.
I was just going straight, accelerating at about 70% throttle in 2nd gear, maybe around 5600 rpms(?). I had VSA off, and the rear kick out wide to the right (probably about 60 degrees), brought the rear back to the left, then centered it. Didn't leave my lane, or spin or anything eventful, must have looked pretty goofy to the Avalon behind me though. Just a nice reminder to keep yourself aware at all times.
