It's a 4x4, not a front wheel drive vehicle. As soon as the front started to slip, the rears would have more traction but then again I agree that nobody SHOULD be trying to fly around a corner in the rain anyway but not certain 20MPH would be anything I would consider fast so it probably is just his tires
