I Cleaned and washed and waxed my car yesterday. Parked it under the car-port to avoid the night mist. Took it out this morning to go to work, all happy that it would be shining throughout the rest of the week.

And Bam. out of nowhere it Rains. Along with all the road dirt from the tires of other vehicles in front of me.

I almost spun out at one turn though, but it wasnt so bad. I can keep my car on the road. Rest y'all watch out for curvy roads and sliding sideways..

Do you even have a welded diff?

Don't make any hasty generalizations if you don't.

Never had a problem with my open diff (which I still have) in the rain.

Only time I have a problem is if my rear tires are bad, which I need to rotate anyways. Or get new ones since I get federals for cheap.

Or if I'm actively trying to do "something."

rained overnight in glendora/monrovia/arcadia area for sure, because when i got into that area this morning to drop off my daughter, i noticed the freeway was wet as well as the side streets, then i got to my parents place and it started hardcore raining with the sun out...and me caught with no windshield wipers

but that was it....like 10min tops

^Time to put the wiper back on! haha

What kind of pussy can't control a car in the rain? Its not like its hard...
Now, driving a Chevelle with slicks, a spool, and a VERY torquey big block, and getting caught up in the rain... That shit is sketchy. lol
