Thank the gods for new england weather.

Last night was my first night on ice/snow with my evo.
That's one advantage we Northerners have...sideways at as low as 5 mph and barely any tire wear. I love empty industrial parking lots at night.

Sleet and snow and it's nothing but sliding, even with snow tires.

That's the beauty of it...not only are the roads covered in snow and ice, but the cold weather causes the rubber tires to contract, losing even more traction. My snow tires are good but the kind of torque the evo produces loosens them up at the tap of the throttle on slick roads.

= effortless donuts and drifting. It's like WRC. So much fun...
