Playing in the snow

aight, by a show of hands, who took their G and drove today to play in the snow? i was driving with my boy and his girl and baby, back from roanoke today and on the way back was a butt load of cars on the side of the road stuck slideways in a ditch or between the road and a wall. it was purty scary. i also saw this Z, *** end into the wall, wheels floating off the ground, stuck in a ditch. cops just got there so it must've just happened. these two asian dudes were laughing and smoking cigarettes on the side of the road(of course it was some asian dudes). so did anyone else crash or spin out today in the snow?

Man was it a tough drive this morning in the snow...They didnt pave my neighborhood all that good and I was outside shoveling snow until 10:30pm last night, but the funniest thing is whenever my dog tried to use the restroom he would fall in the snow cuz it couldnt support his weight..LMAO.!!!!

How about you guys...how was your drive if you went to work today?

Was out a lot yesterday. I drove real cautiously, but my new winter tires made a huge difference. Dunlop M3's. Probably wouldn't have driven if I didn't have to though cause everyone was going off the road.

well i guess as usual i had bad luck. i was turning onto ffx co pkwy from west ox road around 2-230Pm yesterday. as I turned left onto the pkwy , the rear end went out on me...last split second i steerted INTO it and stopped after i did a 180. needless to say i was scared $hitless b/c i was facing oncoming traffic on the pkwy and everybody saw me spin out. after that i put it in reverse and was able to turn around w/o holding up traffic...after that i was doin 10mph on the pkwy...dont take the G out...

i was lucky not to hit the curb/median and that another car wasnt in the other lane or we wouldve collided...lucky i guess

Well all of you guys got lucky...I got hit a couple hundred feet while in a spiral. My front wheels are now facing opposite directions so my car isn't driveable. I just had it picked up and towed to the body shop...

Fun doing 60 mph on snow, controlled sliding & AWD pulls the tail back no problem at turns. Put all the SUVs to shame.

Just need to brake early, it's easy to get over confident with the X.
