I flew ito a ditch... didn't this happen to Diana?
Sorry about the fuzzy pic but the person taking the picture didnt' know how to use the camera very well.
I was on West Little York and 290, I push the car a little too hard when it was slick, my rear end fishtailed and I did a 180, went into the grass sideways, onto another road, and into the ditch. I missed a drainage pipe that woulda destroyed my underbody by 1 foot, and the guardrail by 4 feet.... lucky me

Glad that you're okay, but you'll have to respect this car in the rain. Searching the boards for accident in the rain will generate a big list.
Just be careful when driving in the rain, but be extra careful when driving on worn tires. I've been through many sets of tires in my 112k miles and can 'feel' the beginning of the tires slipping at EssTooKayTD mentioned.
I always get a new set of tires when I feel it's unsafe to drive in the rain.

Glad your ok and that is why I do not use S02, but other tires that are good in the rain.
