Dang, glad you're ok!

AestheticCM1 · 09-21-2016, 05:21 PM

That sucks. How many miles on the tires?

Nixin · 09-21-2016, 05:52 PM

As long as you were not injured, nothing else matters. Cosmetic damage can be repaired.

ChopsZ · 09-21-2016, 06:14 PM

Either the guy you past was going extremely slow or you were buzzing along at a pretty good clip. Definitely too fast for once you got into the rain.

Glad you're okay though.

Trips · 09-21-2016, 06:22 PM

Wow!!

Glad you're Okay!!

loiro370z · 09-21-2016, 06:36 PM

Thanksguys
The tires have probably 4 k miles or less. Was doing about 60.so no overly fast, just the water came so fast that got like a pool on that lane.

8.52 x sqrt of tire pressure = hydroplaning
tire condition/ weight /grooved concrete can all move the final number but assuming you are running 32 psi
means that you could hydroplane as low as 48 mph. looks like you were above that. glad you are ok.

axmea? · 09-21-2016, 07:58 PM

The good thing going is you're ok. The other good thing is you can get a new bumper.

Spooler · 09-21-2016, 08:04 PM

Wow, that wasn't much rain at all. I wonder if the concrete was oily. What tires do you have? Did you make any quick changes in
throttle or steering? I go way faster than that in heavier rain with RE11's.

Felix 808 · 09-21-2016, 08:07 PM

Man if that's all that's damaged you got off light. Gad your OK.
