ORIGINAL: B.K.

Good to hear it wasn't too serious.
Out of curiosity, how fast were you going when you lost traction?
Right about 50 mph. I wasn't quite up totraffic speed. I had noticed a few times in heavy rain the Nitto's were hydroplaning at highway speeds so I usually drive very conservatively in the wet. I think the back tire crossed over white reflective stripe at the beginning of the merge lane where it is stillsolid. That part is slippery. A few more feet and it becomes a dotted line. Probably wouldn't have happened there.

Hey, thats good you are alright and I know how you feel. My friend lost control of my 01 gt last year and rolled it, we were lucky. You probally really miss your car though, but there are plenty of Mustangs out there. I got a 88 5.0 a month after my crash (what I originaly wanted) I love it. Sorry about the loss man.
