Rain, corner & VTEC

Dan,
Have you been drinking from ....
I simply don't believe it to be honest. You should be pining for the fjords by now.
Gotta be a bull$hit story. Those 3 events together is a one-way ticket to the parking lot in the sky.
I cry

you can vtec in the wet, just expect it to be like walking on the ceramic floor in the kitchen just after you step out of the shower. and that's for most people. those with moderate talent tend to avoid wet corner mishaps.
wet corners are best taken as smooth as possible with warmed tyres. best way. and make sure your car's correctly aligned.

There's vtec (6000) and then there's VTEC (9000). Which one was it?

I think I used to prefer driving in the wet - exciting
It was like a River!

I agree, Although driving on the unlit parts of the M40 last night in torrential rain feeling it near aquaplaning all the time didn't make for a relaxing drive.

I hate driving the S in the wet, not because it's wet, but because I don't trust the crap roads we are forced to drive on. I had a incident last year where I came off a roundabout in the wet and suddenly the car slide into the kerb. I was in 3rd at the time and no where near VTEC. I went back a day or two and saw that the road surface was silky smooth. I reported it to the council who've done sweet FA about it. It was like being on a ice rink

That sounds like a barrel of laughs. Sounds similar to driving on snow and ice along the M40 when your trying to get to a track day
