I didn't apply the brakes at all untill i got control of it. The exit was on a slight decline and it wasn't really raining at the moment but the ground was wet. As soon as i got into the turn i knew something was gonna happen,i could feel the tires slipping. Thats when the rear started to swing on me,luckily i got control of it and came out of it in 1piece.
