sliding when wet...

ok, i havent ever been able to understand this. dont get be wrong by my title, i pull donuts and **** all the time. but like today for example, i went to the mall and it was clear outside...when i came out it was raining like a bitch. so i said what the hell lets go sliding. so i went to a church parking lot but for some reason my car wasnt locking up like it does when its not raining. its like having traction control, yet when it stops raining and the assphault is wet my car will slide fine. im confused...so when its raining = no slide, when it stops raining = good slide....uhhh...

btw, i didnt know what part of the forum to put this under so mods move this if you feel like it.

best time for sliding or doing those kind of stuff is just after it rains when the oil is around n stuff.
