His toureg actually comes out of the water? I thought it wouldn't run unless it was submerged? |

thats cool and everything but why would you want to drive under water? it seems pointless and doesn't look fun, and all the steel on you car will rust. i go mudding in mud, not water and thats fun but you have to clean the truck well when you're done. i just don't get it, but everybody to there own. colin |

This was one of my more touchy water trips... damn 'Tot was floating(due to the current) part of the time, if it would have gone over the small waterfall(3-4ft drop) under the bridge, it would have been lost Hackster running one of the very first Bulu chassis(7/04).... Everyone knows that the ORCRC group loves the water Check out our videos too! |

The deepest I can go is only 7" or so, then the truck floats because the tires are sealed.

| Wel...
The deepest I am allowed is around 8" then I have to pull out because the rubber is getting tight. |
