Default I drove my S2K in the rain!!!

Yeah, thought I'd make a quick post letting folks know I successfully drove my Stook in the rain today...all day!

And....drumroll...I did not succumb to an accident. I did not spin the rear tires out. I did not slide into a curb or abutment or wall or car or tree or house or bridge or oncoming traffic. In fact, I drove my S2K in the rain...all the way home and safely into my garage.

Just thought, what with all the "I smashed my S2K" threads...it would be worth pointing out that we manage to drive them in foul weather just fine most of the time... As always, such success comes with careful attention to the environment in which you drive.

Drive safely...and enjoy!

And that, my friend, is the very essence of safe/smart driving!

Congratulations on making it home in one piece!!

New to the scene - just picked up my S2000. Is driving in the rain supposed to be something hard to do with this car?

Where were you with this advice last week? I thought about it AND did it. Now I must agree with you......Don't even THINK about it
