OK this is some crazy shit. I called my friend Mark who was @ the track already and he said it had rained but they were drying up the track so I left after work @ around 10pm to go. About 3/4 way there on I-75 I see its raining. Im thinking OK the rain must have passed over the track and is moving north. I was wrong. Im driving now in the rain and I keep driving thru some puddles that shift the car a tad. Anyway so I keep on cruising at around 75mph (not quite sure... I slowed down after the first few small puddles) and then I hit this big ass puddle... The damn car drifts right and starts spinning out and I did like two 360 spins in the middle of the highway. During all this im like ok... wtf just happened. And I spun out and ended up on the left side of the road on the shoulder. Luckily no cars were anywhere close behind me and me and my friend are alright and so is the car. All this... and I didnt even get to the track because of the rain. Thank God Im alive though.

Wanna talk about a BAD night. Some guy showing off decided to show off to me Im assuming cause I was the only female in Walters car. Needless to say he spun out and slammed into a curb It was funny. Walter and me were screaming and rolling in laughter in his car. Then we Ran into some folks broke down on the side of the skyway and hung out on the side of the road for a few. Then on the Howard Franklin Walter almost got hit by a Drunk Driver whom I proceeded to call the FHP on and gave out all the important info. So I am now glad to be safe and sound in my moms house.
