I guess redline needs to rev it down a bit .

He was probably only using one jack stand, by the way. That can consume a lot of time.

sounds like he kinda answered his own question in his first post. but yeah tires are very important to the performance of your car especially in rain. I know i hydroplaned a few times on the stocks, since i replaced the tires i haven't hydro planed once.

My friend that drove a 00 eclipse had 60k on his stock tires, spinned out on a curvy off ramp during heavy rain and totaled his eclipse. He said it was the poorly designed off ramp, which i think was part of it, but i think it was mostly from the wore out tires. Crappy tires + rain = accident.
