AutoX in the Rain

Hmmm. Don't think this is a valid argument. While the ability to put down power is significantly reduced in the rain, it just tends to be an equalizer with cars

Hmmm. Don't think this is a valid argument. While the ability to put down power is significantly reduced in the rain, it just tends to be an equalizer with cars of lesser power. More mass (gas and spare tire) would give more lateral force in corners reducing your cornering ability. Do better with only the gas you need and no spare while on course. Especially in the rain. But, definitely drive smooth.
