I was chatting to a mate, hes told me that they are terrible in wet conditions, any feed back on this subject area?

They wheelspin, but they still don't understeer unless you are insensitive to the road conditions (in which case you'll be able to crash anything). Traction is really the only problem.

As above really, traction is sadly lacking in the wet, and the backend demands some respect too. I wouldn't say they are terrible though.

yeah , he said back lights to jump onto one wheel alot and step out.

The back FEELS like its going to go, but dosent unless you are being a complete loon. You'll get some wheelspin in 1st so you have to be careful how you "launch", and you will get some inevitable loss of traction when cornering. It still remains pretty neutral though.
I've driven Castle Coombe in standing water in mine, and was still redlining in 5th up to Avon Rise.
