New Parts!

Hello guys/gals:

I am at work feeling a little bored. But excited, because I got some new things in. 1st I got my Perrin shorty antenna and my personalized license plates. Plates read EVO IX.

I was going to get something like 1FQEVO or FQEVO9 or OVEQF1, but I didn't want to attract hatters and whatnot, plus the real meaing of FQ might come up at church I don't think they would buy Freaking Quick. I am satisfied with EVO IX, since I am there first one in Alaska to get one.

I'll have pictures up soon, but we are having a warm front up here in Anchorage, and the roads are muddy and slushy so the car looks like junk!

Unitl next time signing off, same Bat-time same Bat-channel!

It would hurt me to disappoint my evo like that.

IT IS The Evo with the dccd set to snow and ws50 blizzaks is sooooooo much fun driving in the snow. Drifting w/ or w/o the e-brake is so easy and fun! Everytime I'm in the snow, I am like man this car is awesome!

I know huh! I thought so, I was gonna ask what effects this can have on the car, but don't drifters use the e-brake to drift? I've heard of the scanadian flick, but other than that, I thought you use the e-brake to drift!?

they have a welded center diff for that.
with our cars, you will burn up the center diff. its the same concept if you tow an awd car with only the front wheels up and the rears moving.
front and rear must be moving at the same rate
ofcourse pulling the handbrake for a sec really wont do anything.

Thanks for the info! Even though I only pull it up for a sec to get the back out more, I'll be sure scared to do it now that you mention I can burn up the center diff.
