snip aquaplaning info

Thanks Brian, absolutely fascinating - I'd always assumed lower
pressure was better for grip - which probably explains my first car
accident a few years back.

Imagine a very battered Ford Escort worth slightly less than it's tank
of petrol (yes, this was in the UK). Then imagine a 21 year old
discovering what aquaplaning is rather too close to a brand new Jaguar
XJS. Ooops :-)

Anyway thanks again for the info.
