Well, The SUV Problem in Colorado is rampant as well. I always
get a charge out of icy road conditions:finding the highest
percentage of vehicles in the ditch are SUV's. Mo' mass, same
braking surface area's. DUH.
Actually, I've found the Roadster to be a bit 'stimulating' on
ice -- good braking traction, but man, you *twitch* that gas pedal..
...yet I still have zipped up steep icy hills past SUV's that were stuck
spinning all over...
And still on the SUV thread mind you: what caught my eye, Ronnie,
was this water cannon concept. Now how exactly is it mounted on a
Roadster? Can it be aimed and fired while driving? Or do you need
someone riding 'shotgun'? Reminds me of the time I was trying to
figure out how to install turret-mounted paintball guns on my
Goldwing fairing... :)
