that sucks. atleast you had fun doing it. glad to hear there isn't too much damage. I remember first time I drove my GXL in the rain (drove it home off the lot with bald tires and it started raining) rear end broke loose and I almost smaked into a Gasoline truck makeing a left turn. scared the **** outta me, I creeped to the closest tire shop and got tires put on right then.

Even though it sucked putting my car in a ditch, I had a blast the entire time. Am I neurotic?
Neurotic? Hell, no! You're insane!
Unless your goal is to play demolition derby with your pride and joy, slow the hell down in the rain! Most people don't realize how little traction most car/tire combos have in the wet, and when you increase the speed, your tires aren't even touching the road--they ride on a layer of water. Good luck trying to turn. You'll be skating.

Your car is still cool. I just love it so much because I remember when it was red and had acid wash all over it. And the watching you build the engine and such. It really became something gorgeous, and still is.
