The drive went well and we were at the tail end of an hour long journey when I pulled up to my favorite spot to do burn outs. I like this spot because it's a low traffic T intersection with a wide berth and no obstacles. I pulled up along the vertical axis of the T, came to a complete stop and turned the traction control off.

As you can imagine, things didn't go as expected. The conditions were saturated (very rainy) and I kept my foot on the gas a bit too long. The car came to an abrubt stop shortly after sliding off the road. I didn't really think much of it, I got out and checked for damages and didn't see any. I realized later I was wrong, there was some damage to the underbody and I had to call my insurance. Wah-wahhhh

TL : DR Took a corner too hard after a stop sign with my traction control off and heavy rain, ended up sliding off the road. $2,500 in damages, all repair work has been completed and the car is new and beautiful again.
