the top gear vid

I saw that on topgear a while back, t'was good. I want to try put my truck across water like that on a smaller scale. OK off topic but did anyone see the bugatti on topgear?

I reckon you could do it with a set of paddle wheels and a completely stripped out and waterproofed chassis. Dump the 2 speed/reverse/etc, seal the tyres and rims, no foams, stiff shocks (as few as possible), swaybars, (if applicable)

Therea re a load of TG Veyron vids on youtube, here's one:

Na I recoan it would do it anyway, I often drown my electronics and they never failed:) Going 40mph why those big tires would make it across...i hope:D

I would be thinking on the lines of leaving the 2 speed in there as when it kicks into second it would give faster spin to the wheels?

Yeap like the way they inflate like ballons.

I cant try it for a while now cos I had a little/bad crash today, funny what 2 screws can do to set it 25 mph into a curb:rolleyes:
