This is why you don't drive hard on wet roads. There really isnt enough water there to hydroplane, seems more likely you simply lost grip from pushing it too much.

sorry to hear about your adventure. glad no one was hurt...
please don't take this the wrong way but if it wasn't raining at the time.. the road seems from your pics not to be that slick. which it very well could have been. but if vdc was on you must have been pushing the limits of the car. which could happen to anyone. glad your ok though.... p.s seems like every week some one has gotten messed up. bad luck i guess |

that sucks dude... the 370 seems to do supringinly well in wet conditions compared to my old g35 coupe.. has a lot to do with tires but the car overall seems a bit better in sub par conditions...
sometimes things happen... let insurance do there thing, and hopefully you end up happy in the end

You definetly were driving aggressive if that happened to you.
-___-;; Wet grounds + taking turns is always a bad sign for some... Should've known better but hey atleast you didn't kill anyone or die. Insurance probably won't believe your story and will rape your $$$$. Might not be able to buy a new Z. This happened to a friend of mine but he had the new sti and now he's in a new civic. GL OP!

Man glad your ok..i actually knew this might happened so when i got my ride during winter i went drifting in snow ( safe parking lot of course ) and learned somewhat how to control it, it saved my car plenty of times

Yeah, sometimes we take the feel of the cars' speed for granted and thinking we're going 40 but actually the car is going 60 on smooth roads, hahaha.
