Glad you're ok. I feel pretty good about your chances with the lottery ticket!

killrain · 09-21-2016, 09:23 PM

It's amazing how **** happens. Doesn't really look like too much rain either.

i believe you hydroplane at 50 mph so yea too fast

At least you came out unharmed (except for your feelings). Nothing you could've done there. GL with the repairs!

Nice footage btw

1. What was the tire pressure of your tires in psi?
2. How many 32" left did you have in your tires?
3. Which brand/model of tires were you running?

Glad it wasnt worse...

killrain · 09-22-2016, 02:05 PM

I think you just hydroplaned as well. Has happened to me in every vehicle ive ever owned, including my motorcycle. Just never ever press the brakes when it happens!

JARblue · 09-22-2016, 02:29 PM

Glad you are ok. The car can be fixed.

Streets are at their worst right at the beginning of rain (or after a light rain) before there's enough water to start washing away the oils. You can hydroplane much easier on this water mixed with oil compared to just a puddle of water.

Yikes! That's scary to watch. Considering what happened though damage doesn't look that bad!

GF had to rush to Brasil to see her father, before he passed away last week. Was imagining her reaction to hear I was in a hospital banged up, with no closed friends or family here.
That scared me more than the accident.

JC-Nismo · 09-22-2016, 05:07 PM

I don't drive mine in the rain, but that gave way far to easy, not even enough time to react or try to correct..

Glad you are OK. Nothing like a wreck to mess you up. I am still having issues from my neck from being rear ended. The car can be fixed.
