Evo 9 uphill snow ride

Made a couple of days ago. New fallen snow, 4 people in the car, dunlop winter tires but a little too wide (235 - because of the law it is not permitted to be narrower which i would like for a snow tire). Had fun and that is what the Evo is for

So if I posted a vid wearing driving gloves that would make me a pro?

That was a cool vid and all but that guy is far from pro. I can drive like that, better even. He was going pretty slow.

40 to 60 mph (2nd and 3rd gear) on the snowy narrow road with rocks on one side and threes on the other - hmmm, slow? I don't think so. Plus having 4 people on board and my only car (daily driver) doesn't help either. With a carbon lip !!

Everyone thinks they could drive like a Wrc driver if they were given a Wrc car, but i can assure you that is not the case.

One thing is to talk on the internet, the other is to go out and really do it-
