There not so bad in the rain...as long as you fix that awful thing we call a suspension. Thats what MM is for...
Glad to see your ok and so is the car.
BTW what kinda tread depth you got on the tires? I've only noticed things get bad on my falkens in extremely heavy rain and they had maybe 3/32" tred on them at the time. And they are by no means good in the rain even when new.

Hey Tadpole, glad your okay!
Sorry to hear about what happened and more sorry to hear that the cop didn't even give you the benefit of the doubt. Did he even give you a chance to explain by asking you about what exactly happened? Fight the ticket man. It is possible to hydro-plane at any speed. Many variables like amount of rain in a given time, amount of steer, oil on the road, an uneven road causing bump-steer thus over-steer, depth of puddles, and gravel on the road. Unless you were caught racing, there is no proof of what exactly happened besides your testimony. A positive conclusion of negligent (careless) operation could never be proven with all of the possible scenarios. Glad your okay and the Tadpole is okay. lol. Yeah mustangs don't like rain very much. OH what ever you do don't allow the topic of modified suspension to come up! Let us know what happens okay? This would make a great Lifetime movie lol.

Completely bald in the middle. When the cop saw that he asked about it and I told him I had some tires at my house waiting to go on. He laughed and said "You should have done that earlier."
Yea same thing.
