Anyone?
From my experience TCS will not help you in the rain. I was driving yesterday when it was just misting out and the roads where slick. I was turning right at an intersection. I thought I was driving safe for conditions and not pushing the car at all and felt the back end slip some. Scared me but no crash or anything like that. Needless to say I will be taking turns much slower in the rain from now on. I read alot of posts on these boards about accidents and loosing control and I have to admit I was one to think they must have been trying to drift or drive crazy etc and just don't want to admit it. I learned yesterday that you can really not be pushing the car and get into a scary situation or worse.

Anyway lesson learned. Everyone drive safe out there
