+1! Heck, I remember driving in Palm Springs during partial flood 8-9 years ago with good standing water in the freeway and streets, and I am the only one going 70+ mph on the freeway safely and stabley (no hydroplaning)! All the crap suvs were slipping and sliding I really couldn't figure that one out, but that's Porsche engineering for you.
