Yes but, it is my understanding that accelerating gives the back traction by shifting weight to the rear. More weight in the back would give more traction to the rear and thus, make it less likely to slip out. TBH, much of what I've read on the matter has been extremely contradictory and I need a better understanding of how things REALLY work in a FWD.
"I made my share of mistakes as a young driver and learned from them". I'm trying to do the same but honestly, other than the rain, I don't know for certain what caused the spin.
