news:v4d79f$1s32r$1@dont-email.me...I seem to recall dirt bikes with some types of tires can also
hydroplane/ski across water, and I think Mythbusters did some short
tests with cars.
------------------------------
I helped rescue a VW Beetle floating in a pond in a sandpit. The water line was almost at the top of the rear fender opening. We were on dirt bikes without much equipment, fortunately someone had line to pull it to shore and the VW didn't weigh much.
I skidded my VW off an icy road in the Black Forest while trying to slow down at a garage. The husky owner came out and lifted the rear end back onto the pavement by himself, then sold me tires.
