[Roadsters] Mythbusters in Ohio

[Gary McCormick]

Did you get wet at all from that "backflow" affect where the air swirls around
and blows your hair around from behind?

Hey,
Just returned last night from the weekend at Mid Ohio.B  We had a great time,
but more on that later...
As we were driving through western Ohio, we had the chance to test a
Mythbusters myth.B  Yep, driving a convertible through a downpour and staying
dry.B  I can attest that at 60-70-ish, low windshield roadster, top down, in
rain so hard I could barely see 10 feet in front of the car, we stayed
relatively dry.B  Had I thought of rolling up the side windows....we would
have
been much dryer.B  We had just passed the front apparently, as the wind was
suddenly blowing more around our backs when we saw the curtain of water in
front of us.B  No place to stop to avoid it, so we pushed forward.B  I am
still
a little amazed that it could be raining that hard and how relatively dry we
stayed.B  TaDaaaaa!!!!
