Talking Snow Beast!!!

Just a word to my poor deprived Southern brethern: SNOWBEAST!!!

Thanks to rubber advice from Neal at TireRack, Michelin LM22s make fast work of snow and ice for fun and reliable handling.

And why post this on the Vishnu site?
To make the point that this Stage 1 '03 does not just bring the Evo to the power it deserved at birth, it can be driven smoothly with accurate throttle and power feathering. It's not just streetable, it's snow-able.
And fun.

Thumbs up

Yes, of course, they're Bridgestone Blizzak LM22s, slightly less adherent than normal Blizzak's on ice, but better handling. Thanks for the pickup!
