Hydro-Planing with the Raptor? How
#1
I'm getting a 2002 Raptor or any other Quad and I was woundering if Anyone ever ride on top of water before? Like on the Huevos videos?
I'm was seriously considering trying a puddle about a 1' deep X 10' long. Also can you go down the side of a ditch and hit the water a hydro-plane across?
has anyone done it?
And if you have any pointers let me know...... all I figure you have to do is go real fast , pull the front end up is that all you need to do?
Can I do it with stock tires?
How far can I go?
How deep does the water have to be?
I you need to know I'm 6'4" 250.

you need paddle tires. 4th or 5th gear pinned. and no you cannot drive into a ditch and hydroplane. the raptor is not a 4x4, so as soon as the front tires hit the water, there is nothing to keep them afloat, they are not being powered so the front end will sink. hope this helps.
