Well if your car is that dodgy in the wet there's something not right, be it alignment, spring rates or tyre pressure.
Obviously it'll be easy to spin the wheels, but I'll presume you're being gentle with the power.

Is a shame as a 7 looks so much better with a full cage and side bars and stands a good chance of saving your life in the process. IMO they are the bare minimum you should have.

Aye I agree, a full cage is the way to go. The side impact bars are a very good addition too, a crash barrier is just tall enough to fit the rear wheel under, leaving about 48mm between you and a big steel slab to the nugget.

All of the things you list can be right and they are still a handful due to the lack of weight,17 inch wheels with 40 profile tyres won't have helped the indy in this crash

I was actually genuinely trying to help, not be a cunt. In my experience, which you instantly presume to be minimal, they can be set up to handle pretty nicely in poor conditions. Obviously a wee bit of help isn't wanted. That's cool, I'm not forcing anyone to listen.
Main thing is, I hope the bloke in the crash in question is okay =]

Who said anything about being a cunt?And who's asking for help?

Let's hear your personal experience of driving a seven type car then please in the wet?
