Bad idea. Any modern car, with traction control, would shut off the cruise control if the driver tried something this silly.

Yes well...the owners manual did not warn against using cruise in inclement weather. The system was/is very basic. If the wheels broke traction with cruise control engaged, the system just keeps trying to make the car go faster not knowing that the wheels were spinning and so it just keeps applying more throttle in an attempt to maintain the set speed!!!! All the way to redline and the rev limiter...DANGEROUS.
