*Update* LOl... When I posted this the thread was only 1 page long... Its now like 3 lol... Please lock this thread before the guy kills himself from all the negative comments.
Yeah the negative comments are uncalled for and juvenile at best.

Hey OP, My VDC is off 90% all the time No one was hurt! Good luck with the repairs and enjoy the car when you get it back!!!!!! Cheers.

I'm usually a defensive driver.
I watch the behavior of the drivers around me.
If I see someone driving aggressively, I keep out of their way, or else they'll jump lanes so fast, they'll barely clear the car behind them as they switch lanes. I hate people who do this.
If you saw that driver coming, you should make any attempt to avoid them at least.

Sorry to hear but I must say you were kinda asking for it. I can't think of one good reason to be driving with VDC off in the rain. Good luck with the repairs.

Turned your VDC off when the roads were wet? Seems reasonable.

Maybe... but driving the Z w/o VDC is also a recipe for disaster as the OP found out. As a driver, you rely on your own skills and the car's handling to control what you can, to include avoiding the idiots this govt allows to drive.

First off, good thing you are OK.

But you turn the VDC off during a rainy day on city streets? Why exactly? What were you hoping to accomplish? I am sorry, but you asked for this.
