Careful out there...
Despite my nice Bridgestone Potenza Pole-Positions on the rear, I got a little excited and broke the rear end loose coming off the Interstate. I just steered into the direction I wanted to go and all was well, but for a few seconds it felt like I was in slow motion, kind-of surreal as if time itself slowed down.
After I recovered well, I was pretty pleased with my driving skills - until I saw an 8(!) car train of rear-enders on the other side of the road and no fewer than 5 cops trying to make sense of the mess.
Be careful out there, not only does this weather make us Floridians all depressed, but it could kill you, too.

Good driving. I know that exact slow motion feeling. Glad you made it out ok. If you can anticipate the kick out its fairly easy to control but if it hits you unexpectedly it's a bitch.

I had that happen when I hit VTEC on and was running at about 70MPH. I was on a straigh line road though, the car still went about 30 degrees out on me. Not a comfy feeling at that speed but I countered and did not freak, kept my foot on the gas and steer through
