Even with fresh tires, my former Nissan Altima coupe would spin in the rain without feathering

It's not by any means a fast car. Heavy, FWD, and four cylinders. Yet, it's a bit of an art to get up to speed well with it.

I'm talking about the laughably slow 0-60 time (~7s) in the rain, especially on an incline!

That's only around 175 HP...

My 460 HP Mustang will easily spin when it's warm and dry; it doesn't take much. Most tires/surfaces aren't that good
