Went mudding in the lancer the other day

On sunday night i went mudding in my lancer es in my friends pasture and it was bad ***! i could not believe how well the car handeled everything i threw at it. i barely felt the bumps, the car did not get stuck at all, and the stayed in a straight line the whole time i had no issues of lost control. everytime i threw the steering wheel it went that way and when i threw the e brake it spun around like no other.i love that car to death now. i had no idea that the car could handel so well in the mud being front wheel drive. the mud was a good 3 inches deep and a rear wheel drive truck got stuck but my car didnt. the only thing that went wrong was that i drove it so hard that i nearly overheated and i couldnt get a picture of the car. when i was done my front bumper was covered in 1/8 inch thick of mud and you couldnt see my headlights or front licence plate at all. the only part of the car that wasnt covered was the back bumper and the back of the trunk. all my friends that were there thought that the car was unbelievable that the car can do so well in the mud and so did i.

thats cool man... I guess its all that rally heritage that the lancer has... I don't think that I could do what you did because I would be afraid that I would tear something on the car up...
