Take a portion of snow add 340/360 rwd=result big slides and grin to match :lol:

No snow where I live but plenty of ice-went out for a play earlier had a couple of big twitches in 3rd when the back goes light on crest/bump

Now some RWD fun. 8) Though if it continues to snow like that I have to shovel some snow that I can get the car out.. :D Dunno if plow trucks come tomorrow or at monday. Well.. roads are kept clean but I guess the maintainance company guys won't come 'till monday so gotta keep the parking lot clean untill then. :P Or then I could just wait untill some neighbour needs to get his car out... :mrgreen:
