well i wasn't hydroplaning but last night i was going to a friends house and we had just gotten a lot of snow here in chicago, as i was leaving my street i was going on to a busy road and did a little drift as a car was in the turning lane, i had my wheel to the left as i felt my rear end starting to kick out and managed to get traction, i think i will put some heavy junk in my trunk, no pun in tended
