so what r going to get when u hydroplane in the audi?


Wow I dont know where to start with that comment.... Im not novice driver... drifted my first car at 15 built a sub 14 second bonneville ( over 4000 lbs of car) by the time i was 19. im not new to cars or how they handle in different conditions. I know a hydroplane and this was no hydroplane. theres no way for you to say what it was or wasnt unless you were there... but hey i'll humor your thought for a sec... if it was a hydroplane why would the car take about 150 feet to regain its handle if there was only 1 puddle on the road and the rest was just semi damp if that. And a hydroplane of that length would mean the car was speeding down the road.... medium traffic meant an average speed of 45-50 max... just doesnt add up but thats beside the point i guess... the audi handls like a dream and drives even better. and all wheel drive does wonders in wet conditions. dont think I wil be having that problem and if I do I guess Im moving on the a hovercraft or tank of some sort.

Well hydroplaning has less to do with they type of car you drive and more to do with your tires and the weight of your car. Your Audi is still going to hydroplane but being AWD it will be easier to control.
Also it has nothing to do with your experience.... its just one of those things that is uncontrollable. I mean who knows without being there we don't really know what went on.... but sounds like you were just skimming the surface.

I've hydroplaned for 100 feet before.... fun but scary at the same time.
