F355 in rain

It won't shrink......I promise.

 

Not me.

 

Heck No, the thought would never cross my mind.

 

I drive in the rain...no problems.

 

No it wont shrink, but ya arse will when ya spin Come to thnk of it ya dick will shrink when ya get the bill Personaly i try not to drive mine in the wet. I drive one of me bosses ferrari instead LoL!!

 

The PZero's on my car can't handle a lot of water, other than in a straight line. I also find road temperatures near freezing level are just as hellish.
Anyone have better experience with Pilots?

 

I actually like driving in the rain. Same goes for riding bikes, usually take the super-moto out to play when it's raining. I've had the 355 out a bunch of times in the rain, and it runs great. Makes one hell of a roost at speed from the underbody. One year at the Monterey historics it rained and drizzled almost everyday we were there, the car didn't miss a beat.

I always thought the P Zeros were good in the rain on the 355's. Make great roostertails at triple digit speeds.

 

I don't drive a Ferrari but I agree with you on the PZeros not handling well in the rain. Pilots were recommended to me but I am sticking with the PZeros because in optimal conditions there isn't a better tire IMO.

 

I was actually hydroplaning a little coming up 101 by Morgan Hill in a severe downpour with P Zeros, and that was at 50-55 MPH!

‘Course they were near worn down to slicks

 

I will not drive if it is raining, if it happens to rain after I'm out oh well. One concern would be the other people on the road.......

 

Mine has never missed while in the rain. Check all the plugs to make sure water isn't getting past the boot.

early cars have 2 ECUs under the side engine bay covers that can collect warter in theory and some times do. Late cars have one ECU in cocpit. So the most important rubber boots to check on early 2.7 355s are the Ecu ones.

 

I drove my car a lot in the rain with the oem Pzeros...no problems at all, handled fine. I had a fresh set of Goodyear F1 GSD3 tires installed recently and they are even better in the rain.

 

My car runs just as well in the rain... Going to do it again in a few minutes!

NEVER...
If it happens to rain when I'm out, I must keep on driving my ferrari....and then I spend hours cleaning it...

 

Have been in the rain a few times, no problems other than it needing a more thorough wash afterward! My Michelin PS2's are great in the rain. My Porsche 997S has the same tires and is my daily driver....it seems to like the rain and handles perfectly.

Never had electrical problems due to rain but while running, the engine heat helps dry the rain. I try not to park it out in the rain....garage or in emergency, like at the FCA national, have an outdoor cover that works fine.

 

It's fine. Surprisingly, it handles just great when raining. I was once hit 155mph. while playing with a porsche under the rain coming back from Fl. in the turn pike.
Drive it like you stole. Life is short enjoy it.
