WinterEvo: Trial by fire...err, umm, SNOW!

First big snow of the year... it got it's winter legs...






Wow, is that a blast... SUPER stable, TONS of fun, wanna WRC it? Tap the throttle.

ContiExtremes as the shoes, work VERY well even in that crap.

2 major things I learned:
1) In order to get it to turn when making a corner, you HAVE to be on the gas, or it'll just push.
2) Downshifting slows down better than brakes.

thats what you get for putting the 03 in the snow... tell me how the snow setting works on the gg

i'm up north in the snow, but i'm fairly sure my evo will never see the white fluffy stuff, or the salt/sand that accompanies it.
