i felt bad for smoking the tires last night rocking out of the snowbank, got down to the pavement and smelt the tires burning a bit......wet snow yesterday, -20 today everything froze up underneath and handled/ran like **** today. driveshaft coated in snow, ice on the pulleys, i swear i could see the hood vibrating......pulled it inside work to let it defrost/melt, so far ive filled 2 mop buckets of water from it

hoping to get out tonight and play around in the floodway!

Default Streblo & I out in the Blazers

So tonight we finally got out for some urban wheeling. 1st "road" lol he went in 1st & I hung back just incase... sure enough that 4' snow drift/bank was a bit much & he got hung up GOOD! So we hooked up the recovery strap & tried to get him out while I was taking a vid, difficult to do at the same time. His gratitude for pulling him out, he runs into me! lol
Only miner bumps to my fog lights on the grille guard but his tire carrier may be bent a little.
Here's a vid of that & him showing off doing another 360 down the road.

Our trucks side by each & what I got stuck in. Turns out there's a drainage ditch under that snow. (we dug it out a bit before pulling)

lol, just miscommunication. He was out far enough or so I thought. We'll take care of it sometime, we both feel bad the others ride got a witto booboo. It was a blast but freaking cold!!! -20C & a windchill that was obnoxious! I can't wait till my ride is tuned this week & running at full potential. (fingers & toes crossed)

AHAHA i love your commentary..and in my defence......i thought we were going all the way out of that street and i made the mistake of checking my rear view mirror (in which i couldnt see your lights in)...my bad......heart stopped a bit when that happened....checked out the tire quickly tonight bumpers still in contact cant see any visible damage, will have to inspect closer in the light tomorrow........heres my pics of the night

I couldn't make it TOO easy for ya lol. But yeah miscommunication I suppose, next time I'll bring the 2 way radios!
& yeah mine did too... OMFG MY NEW PIAA'S!!!! lol I thought it was just the tire, maybe a bit of the rim under the cover that impacted.
& you leaving me at the lights because CB isn't tuned yet... omg lol It's running but not all there - much like it's owner I suppose. (better for me to say that 1st than someone else like Chris lol)

my thought was.**** HIS FRONT END (as i forgot you had a brush gaurd)...heard a rattle on the way home, will have to do some inspections tommorrow, either tire carrier area or the box on the roof might have shifted a bit in the jerkyness getting yanked out of there.......if it wasnt so cold i wouldve suggested you take a run at that road.!!!! ah well good times,,,,theres always next time.
