It very well could have been the tires... That much power in the rain makes it just like driving in snow!!!

This was first posted yesterday around 2:00pm. The OP of that thread said his wife witnessed it and the kid in the Town Car blew the red light and t-boned the Vette. Congrats kid, you're a jackass!

To be shoved 60+ feet or so at E 13 Mile and N Campbell Road, Royal Oak, MI 48071 35 mph was greatly exceeded.

I love how quickly people are to make assumptions.
Look at the photos a little closer and maybe you'll realize the Vette did absolutely nothing wrong. It's a test car. How else are they going to test them in the rain to see what tweaks they might need to make to their "inclement weather" traction setting

The Corvette looks pretty good for being t-boned. I'm sure the wet roads helped, but still, it looks pretty safe to be driving one.

Doesn't look totaled to me.

Looks better than I would have expected for being shoved that far.
