No. F-bodies are so awesome they walk on water. That's why they suck in the rain.

I wish the damn rain would go away. I haven't been mountain biking in 3 weeks. Every time I plan on biking, it rains and ruins the trails.

Easy there, you possibly have crappy tires or since the front and rear tires are so wide, it makes the water harder to escape. Or you are just driving to damn fast in the rain.

Well from my LT1 experiance, (a 95 Z28), they are very good low end torque which makes for a bad experiance in water. What more do you need to know than power>traction?
