Just been out to my local town ( Stockton on Tees ) and its about 100-125MM deep. A very interesting drive to say the least. The bit that I enjoyed was the ford van backing away from me to avoid the two large snow rooster tails, at least 3 Metre high, being thrown out from the rear tyres. Do we throw rain water to the same height ? If I felt brave enough and upped the speed to over 50 what height is possible. PS passed a Porsche 911, sprayed him well and good, mind you he was only doing about 15 at the time.

I was out at 7.30, We've had a pretty decent covering last night and there was no one on the road. Got the old focus out this morning and spent most of the time going sideways on roundabouts.

Hi Adam. Well I hope to get to the next Toby Carvery meet, that is if I have stopped using my splitter as a snow plough, and I wish that was a joke ! So hope to meet you there.
