Driving in the wet is hard...

I think I can explain.

The first time was on accident due to too much acceleration.  The 2nd one was for fun, just because he'd discovered 'just-that-point' where the back in would get loose.  The 3rd time was because now he'd found a new "play-toy" (breaking the tires loose) and went too deep with the throttle because of the now higher fwd speed and couldn't recover.  In short, it was what ATXZJ said...basically it was on purpose.  The only reason I chimed in here is that I tend to do this same thing on occasion.  But I (sorta) do it as a test to see how much acceleration (or deceleration/braking) my vehicle can accomplish when wet.

Bee in the car?

I used to have a 2002 V8 Explorer back when I had to tow a trailer, and it had a limited slip diff.  It was lively to drive when it was wet and fun to get sideways.

The unlimited slip differential.

Reminds me of my high school days. I had a Chevy Silverado that I fishtailed all over town. My dad had a Mustang GT, 5.0, stick. That car snapped around SOOOO much faster than my big old truck. One misty morning, I took the Mustang to school. We decided to skip out and go get some tacos. I thought it would be good idea to roast the tires on the way out of the parking lot. Next thing I know, we are facing 180 degrees in the other direction on the wrong side of the road, and the teacher of the class I'm skipping is out front of the school just shaking his head.
