I love when it rains when I'm driving because it means I get to drift on all my turns.

Now, don't get me wrong, I don't do this in traffic, I wait until I hit an open road.

I also don't usually go over 30 MPH, am usually in 2nd gear at around 2-3K

It IS very irresponsible, but wet roads make it so easy, and driving is just so boring, so I figure I'd add in style points!

Oh I did, but what you COULD say is, the rain is the perfect opportunity for you to analyze the waxs water repelling abilities!

I like it too...However the satng doesnt have power steering anymore...and its on slicks, so It drifts when I dont want it to! When I try to play like that in my Lightning...it isnt as much fun, Its so hard to predict where that big ass bed is gonna go...and I dont want to dent my other baby!

Rain = Dirty car....

I used to like the rain for sliding and playing, but that was when I had older cars I didn't really care too much about.

Snow, on the other hand, is just awesome.

Rain here is good. The pollen is ridiculous! I'd rather have a wet car that has a good coat of wax on it .... than a greenish-yellow car.

I love rain and thunderstorms, but it has nothing to do with driving, I just think they're cool.

I like thunderstorms, but just plain rain is boring. I hate driving my Stang in the rain because it gets dirty as ****, but it's my DD so I gotta do it sometimes.

I hate rain, whenever it rains I stay inside period. Rain infuriates me, makes running errands or whatever a pain in the arse. Can't do anything outside either.
