Just for the record, the river, was more of a puddle. It had maybe a half centimeter of water, and thats it... Cool for such little water...

When we went through there on Thursday, we would light up the tires after the water. It is smooth concrete. I was able to get to third gear spinnin the tires and I never even moved.

Then i remembered how much I paid for my tires, so I stopped.

Cool pics, but be careful about getting your rotors wet especially if they're hot.

If I had been moving at a good pace prior, I would have been inching through that water.

We were, but we stopped after that little puddle to take some photos. we waited about 10-15 minutes of just sitting and taking photoes before taking pics. Im also running brembo slotted rotors with hawk hps pads and the stock brembo calipers. very very very hard for me to get the up to temp on an unfimiliar road.

By the way, i hydroplaned immediatly after that puddle. I went through it at around 30-40 (wasn't paying attention to my speedo, just my control). I have a lot of experience with sliding, but i do take my time unless im 100%.

ya. Many people said they were going, no one showed up. We postponed it a week because of the rain. That realy made people mad, but I couldn't risk car crashes.
