man...........be away for a few months and they come outta the word work. (it's tough playing catch-up with all the reading i need to do)
forgive me for the long post, but i've got 8 pages to catch up on.........
you know Matt, i've said it many times before, but i'll say it again, it's not the machine that makes the driver, but the driver that makes the machine. case in point.......Winter of '08, i was out during a 30 hour storm we had here (i think it was in Jan.? you remember that one Brad?) anyways, i had to go do an emergency service job on my buddy's plow truck in the far north end of Barrie, and by the time i was heading home there was about 2 feet of snow across 75% of the 400 (6 lanes North & South) and the snow was constantly coming up over the hood, and i'm buzzing by all these city drivers in their Cherokee's, Explorer's, Blazer's, etc. (ok, i was going like 65-70, and they were probably doing 30-40, snow was about 2 feet deep..........)
and all that was in my 70hp diesel Jetta! i also had some amazing winter tires on, which helped alot.
i lughed my *** off when i saw the work van as well, and that above statement is just too damn funny! kinda like the guy i know who's last name is Thornhill, who lived on Thornhill Ave as a kid, in the city of Thronhill. i kid you not! he used to get followed home by the cops all the time, 'cause they never believed his licence was real. (this was before they all had those laptops in their cars)
that would make for a great group or forum buy!
it's actually easier to do in a taller/higher vehicle, but just as easy to lose it as well. even with all the power my Dad's 'Stang has, it's still a bit of a chore to make a nice long drifted corner. plus it's not mine, so i'm probabaly being waaaaaaay more careful than normal.
wait, am i careful any of the time?
all you have to do is call Brad. just 'cause i wasn't around the forum, doesn't mean i was outta commission.
we'll get a PA one next week.

I was keeding. Must be intersting to watch everyone in the winter. I don't get why you would have so many people with little fwd of rwd vehicles in the winter. You guys get some serious snow, lol. I've seen videos.
So what do you do at work?
I'll have to do that next time I head up north when it snows, haha!
We have a k1500 Suburban we use for travel.

A: I might be able to swing a deal for the HD cams & they are AWSOME, seen them in offroading shows on TV, totally high def!
& B: Streb, weds I get my belts (ordered two) for the SC, after the tuning... lets find some snow!
If all goes well (FINALLY) then I'm at the point where I want to flex a lil, ya know?
Just with the SC the rear (G80 posi) broke lose, hopefully the intake & injectors make it all the better. Let you take it for a whirl.
