Re: When do tires take effect?

I want to gain a little more knowledge on tires, because I almost killed myself last night. I was comming home from a friends house (at night, chilly out), hopped on the freeway, and there is a long mellow turn that can be taken pretty fast. I'm comming around this turn and my car lets loose, real bad. I recovered the gtv, and a second later it let loose again, worse then the first time.
I've been dwelling on this for 2 hours already. Maybe my tires were not warmed up? But I've tested my tires cold and warm, have not experienced something like that. Since it was chilly maybe the road was moist? Maybe I ran over a puddle of oil?
Anyways, do you think it was the tires not being warm? Speak out.

Did you lift the throttle in the middle of the turn? It doesn't get that cold around here that a street tire like the AVSi would stay cold for very long I wouldn't think...
