I don't think the AOS could provide enough oil to cause a hydro lock since it does not really have a reservoir that would hold that much oil. Im just guessing though, but it did cross my mind as I was watching the complete white out in the rear view.

I also enjoyed seeing the slipstream of car aerodynamics in the smoke...interesting effect. I'd wish I had filmed it for later review.
