yeah because the FWD honda crew on here gets such great traction in snow/ice.

Anyway here at ship it was raining and my back deck was icy. Get out from my 8am final (last one and its over!), and it was i guess hailing. Walk to the CUB for book by back wait around till 9, sell books get out and now the ground is covered in hail. Its like walking on sand almost but alot easier to fall. Looks like im stuck inside tonight. I wish i still had my suby

poolmike · 12-13-2007, 12:43 PM

Time to wax up the Flexibla Flyer and head to the BCCC tonight. Sleds kick a$$ on the ice.

MPowerKai · 12-13-2007, 12:45 PM

I don't mind the weather, I took my M3 around the block a couple of times. It was a nice drive

Renegade_ · 12-13-2007, 12:59 PM

The tires on my car makes it feel like I have snowboards strapped to the wheels when it snows. This weather is alright but as soon as snow starts packing I gotta switch over...

amit · 12-13-2007, 02:18 PM

Are there any good empty parking lots in the lansdale area? I was trying to get some experience with my car in a pretty slushy parking lot today and some dude pulled over and probably wrote down my plates/called the cops. It's not like I was spinning around or anything, just learning to control the car when skidding, recovering from taking quick turns (by quick i mean 10mph), and learning to use the e-brake to my advantage. Either way, I got out of there ASAP.

well with about 90whp, its never been a problem for me...

420sx · 12-13-2007, 07:06 PM

Count yourselves lucky. Im snowed in at an ex-girlfriends place (who I no longer get along with), and am 6 hours from home. I cant leave, and Ill kill myself if I stay.

Ill take a wintery mix over 13" of white stuff any day.

jc8889 · 12-13-2007, 07:13 PM

This weather does blow. I wanted to take the quad out today but it was really ****ty and cold.

SovXietday · 12-13-2007, 07:26 PM

I went to the bank this morning. Everything was a just straight icy slush. I couldn't stop for ****!

but what about the 20whp from the intake an exhaust?

lownslow95 · 12-13-2007, 08:49 PM

I remember that one week when we had the first snow fall of the year. I had to take my roommate to the bank, and I remember coming back, and I was going no more then 5 miles an hour, and I almost hit like 10 cars trying to stop. My wheel was turned to the left and I was going to the right. RWD trucks in the snow suck (don't have 4 wheel drive), and sometimes that doesn't even help. And now I wish I had a front wheel drive car for the winter.
