What you probably mean is Evo ABS sucks in the snow. I've been meaning to wire in a switch to turn mine off but haven't had the time yet. Maybe I'll get to that before we get dumped on again.

1. bombaclat

back before the use of tampons, women used cloths to hold their excrement after their period. So Bomba is referring to their Bum, and Clat is Cloth. Bum Cloth, a rude sayin in countries where this term is used.

you're a bombaclat!

Stock Advans? Snow? That's what I like to call suicide.
Wait until you go over a concrete surface. It'll be like an ice rink. Get those tires swapped asap. You can't even go faster than 3 mph without sliding on summer tires.

ABS almost killed me twice today. I've never had a car with ABS before... I hate ABS. As far as AWD in snow

had to drive my car to work this morning on stock advans.... It was fncking terrifying. I used four lanes to make a right turn once, Tommy makkinen-ed a corner I had no intention of doing so with, and then rolled pat the entrance to work abs having a field day. Thank god it was 4:30 AM and nobody was around. to thhe carr's credit, I never once felt like the car was going to spin. which was disorienting but pleasant.
