Time to find out of my prediction of Robby (Crash) Gordon missing every race that has at least 48 entries holds any water.

Spun? Yikes (there had to be either rain or a curve involved).
Glad you're all right. Sort of reminds me of when I lost the halfshaft, along with tire and wheel, on a GMC van. The thing started feeling very squirrely on the freeway, so I pulled over. As I got up on the raised shoulder, there went the left rear of the van. Managed to keep the thing straight (slowed down to a near-stop before I actually got on the shoulder; good thing).

Yep it was raining.
Could have been worse if I had ended up further off the side of the freeway when I finally stopped because it's sloped and probably would have turned over.
I should have replaced that tire, I had a feeling it was bad it was my own fault. God is always teaching us new lessons. Listen to that little voice in your head.
