I hydroplaned mine on US-281 last Monday when it started raining. I was doing about 65mph when the backend lost complete traction came around and pointed me at the median. As soon as my front tires caught the grass, I finished about a 270° spin while sliding through the grass of the median...
Pics below.
Pic 1 - At the edge of the median there are skinny white plastic pylons with reflectors. I hit one with the front passenger's side quarter panel prior to the slip-n-slide grass median
Pic 2 - The freshly cut grass that covered the side of my car (it was all over both sides)
Pic 3 - All the fresh-cut grass and dirt inside one wheel. All four wheels looked the same...
I got all kinds of lucky that the only damage to my car was the quarter panel and that's it. It could've been much worse...
