Been hydrolocked, never been struck by lightning.

 

Lets not talk about where you fall in the IQ range then.

 

The fujita wont hydrolock, i had that and went in some deep puddles. You good to go that thing roars

 

Sorry...not buying that at all. It's a straw...and straws will suck water. You've been lucky.

I've seen more than one car hydolock with a straw...and the owners weren't stupid...just unlucky. One was smart enough to park his car on what he though was high ground during a flood. Came back to retrieve his car not realizing that the water had actually reached his car and gotten into the tube of his V2...sucked it up on cranking.

I was in the same flood...saw the water marks on my car so disconnected my V2 to drive it home (had also left the car on "high" ground and had a friend get me in his truck to take me home until the water receded...very inconvenient). Got the car home and drained at least a gallon of water from the V2.

Both our cars are lowered, which increased the risk.

We've seen a couple folks hydrolock posting on the forum who simply didn't know that they need to either install a filter umbrella or plug the drain holes along the edge of the engine bay. In just a mild rain, enough water filled the intake to hydrolock the car on crank.
