Learning car control on the skid pad was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. See my similar picture, as I was spinning out.

Looks almost identical to my spin

Not much water on that skidpan though?

Twins

Not much water. Wasn't a dedicated skid pad, and this was an event at the start of summer in Houston (HOT), so the water would evaporate. We had a fire truck re-wetting the skidpad areas (skid pad was only one section of the car control event). Fire truck was spraying water and soap, so it was plenty slippery. I'm actually at the edge, I was supposed to be about 10 feet to the left

I'll get some more practice when I go to Performance Center school in 2 months
