No sliding around, just a picture in the snow. Will get a video sliding sideways at a 150 mph next time it snows!

Yeah, but I'm told it's the low sodium stuff /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Well, can wait to get some here in Texas. The local news stations are guessing that snow will fall on Christmas day. Tcase is installed so I'm hoping to have some fun on my way to work or home.

Low sodium? Does that mean less rust? Alpha i'm visiting the old ladies family for xmas.

Was being a little sarcastic......Yes we have salt here. But what good are cars if you don't drive them? My car has made it 20 years and has no rust on it......A little salt isn't going to do it to much harm!

10" heading this way in the next 24 hours......... And it's currently running! What are the chances of those two things happening to any owner of a VR4?

We've got about 6" here, started last night. I had a blast being the only car on the road and doing massive drifts and supertight donuts in a few parking lots. It did bring the need of LSDs to the top of my list though. The open diffs these come with stock just dont cut it, make it a bit harder to drift and less predictable.

Have fun, be safe, and take pics(something i forgot to do....)!

That makes two of us. This is my first winter with 1501, so I'm ready to see how it compares to my STI.

Snow'd in Dallas! Hell must be freezing over. I drove to work doing the speed limit and everyone else is freaking out. The side roads look like the zombie apocolypse over here. Stuck and abandoned cars everywhere.

If my car had no rust I would not do this. This is the reason why I own two rotted out vr4s.
Took these this week (924/1000):

That's the same thing that happens here. Everybody native to this area and people from the south can't hang. People like me from the North it's just normal sh*t, there will be cars in ditches, in trees, in other cars, etc.

Was out in mine all day with the fam. Didn't get any pictures of the car, but I love the look on people's faces when you take off and they can't keep up with that little 4 door normal car......This may cure my idea of getting something different than a GVR4!
