I got drenched on the A42 on Sunday....twice (no, I don't learn), a white van went past and the passenger was laughing his head off, I just mouthed "what???" :lol:

 

Is this a complaint or a statement of pride :dddc::lol:

 

Not sure really...

 

:lol:
a sudden coldness in the air is a bad sign too I've noticed. Whilst stuck at some roadworks a while back a driver coming past was good enough to stop and tell me it was raining heavily up ahead. Didn't put the hood up but nice of him to stop.


Last week I came round a corner on a 70mph country road only to be hit with about 50 litres of water from above - some farmer had rigged up a home made, industrial size, lawn sprinkler afair, on a pole about 40 foot up, right by the roadside. Went straight through it...


Luckily I was in the tin top that day

Pete, maybe you should spend the extra money, and get a car with a real roof? Your not getting any younger you know, might end up with hypothermia one of these days.

 

sod off :twak:

What happened to the theory that "if you go fast enough you don't get wet"?...

what he said below

It drips off the sides of the windscreen, or if you have the windows up, the back of the windows.

 

What happened to the theory that "if you go fast enough you don't get wet"?...

 

I tested that one last night but found it was about 60 to avoid the hail as opposed to 40 :lol:

 

Lower your window by about 1cm and the rain doesn't come in, I dunno why, aerodynamics and suchlike I guess :dunno:

 

I had mine cracked open on Sunday, made not a blind bit of difference, the rain was frickin biblical :err:

 

was overtaken by a car that had a little old lady in ....

I can't believe you let that happen :shake:

 

She was not drivin'...I mean come on....

 

Am I the only one that floors it in the wet... find the rain hardly comes in
