I haven't gone anywhere, but from my apartment I can watch people slide through the red stoplight at the bottom of the hill. Quite entertaining!

[jon]

it sucks...almost went head on yesterday and almostslid into a curb today...im hoping throwing some studs on will help me out...

[JetBlack]

When I lived on the South Hill, I always avoided the Lincoln street hill and never even considered Gong down Freya from the south side. Holy sweet lord that would suck.

Walnut and Ash for me.

[jon]

i was just driving down division and just started sliding towards the curb....sucked wang...at least i didnt tap it or anything

[ben_cb7]

dang dude with my studs on i have SOOOOO much traction. its sweet. everyone going like 10 mph and i fly by doing like 30 it rocks!

[90LXCB7]

I too hate this fucking snow. My g/f called last night from work, said the stuff they put on the roads to make em not slick, the wet stuff, leaves stripes on the road, well, apparently, it was freezing, caused a ton of accidents. I wish I could move to a place with a warmer climate for the winter. But, here I am, in lovely eastern Washington... altho, the snow does make for some fun parking lot drifting

[jon]

im gonna have some studs put on my car this week...i would do it tomorrow but im sure they are gonna be slammed... fuckin weak shit....good thing i needed new tires in the spring anyways

[realchaos1]

There's no snow or ice in my area... yet... Damn it, it's inevitable!!!!!!!

[JetBlack]

Studs are the bomb. Man, all we talk about on this site are studs and dicks. There's no way we will ever be electable. Spam-magnet.

[jon]

haha...im going to look at an accord wagon in the morning...im gonna rock a wagon in the snow...with studs of course haha

[Domesticated]

lol, yea i some studded i-pikes. there great they were around 550 for the set on my stock 14x6's. then last spring i just go new rims and tires. but i pikes handle so well

[90LXCB7]

I went out and about last night, cleaned about 4 inches of snow off my car, parked it last night, now, there is about another 4 to 6 inches of snow on it. Son of a bitch!!!

[jon]

[90LXCB7]

[ben_cb7]

[eliteautosport.net]

[jon]

Is that the one on Craigslist? the title says "beater with a heater"?

bingo....not bad for 300.... just wish i could get up there today and get it

[90LXCB7]

It didn't look bad, and I'm sure whatever is wrong with it wouldn't take a ton of money to fix.

[jon]

i have 2 engines that could potentially go into it so....for 300 if it gets me through the winter ill be happy then i can always part it out

[RXSE7EN]

2.5 inches here with frozen ice on roads. (Lake Stevens)

God I love emty Target parking lots at 1:00 AM. :)

[MetaEnder]

We've got like an inch of snow, but then the skies cleared up and the temperature dropped to 20 degrees with wind, so it's all crunchy and icy.

I've got studs on my winter car right now, so I don't know if it's such a good idea to be enjoying parking lots like Paganizondadude, haha. But I know how fun it can be.

D0000000000d, that's nothing. Last year, in one night we got close to 3 feet of constant snowing, such that they had to close down Egan Highway, and school and work for the entire city for the day.

Crazy as nuts.

Speaking of snow. I need a new shovel.

This is last winter, this time:

[90LXCB7]

Oh, that snow we had this morning was nothing. We've had a couple feet of it fall in a short amount of time. Now, its cold as fuck, supposed to be -13 by this coming Tuesday

[erik]

Sucks for you JR, lol... its 14 here... high of 7 on Monday, dip into the negatives at night... HATE IT!

[jon]

soooo the guy just called me...he sold the accord :( oh well

[JDM As FUCK EK]

ya well i would of liked to slid into a ditch...but instead i hit a curb and reuiend a my Enkei J-Speed II witch are no longer in projuction, so when u think you had a bad day think of that..and not to mention taking off my type r lip...

[pinksuby20]

I love it when it snows... There are sooo many people that have wreaked in the past 12 hours...

[eliteautosport.net]

Ok there are a few things that kinda suck but are still fun

Racing Clutch
Lightened Fylwheel
Crappy Stock Tires
Racing Brake Pads
Crap Load Of TQ

Makes it a little harder to drive but its fun

[silver_echo]

YAY! Snow drifting!

[erik]

My car almost didn't start its so damn cold.

[JetBlack]

And once it gets this cold, I can give up on washing it or it looking nice, until Spring.

[JDM As FUCK EK]

I love it when it snows... There are sooo many people that have wreaked in the past 12 hours...

ya trust me you love it till its u....

[erik]

Just drive carefully... have to do some preventative maintenance so my antifreeze doesn't freeze all the way.... :(

[silver_echo]

brrrrrrrr!!! too freaking cold... now i need a new battery for my car... it just isn't up to the cold anymore...

[justin]

i have always hated the snow and ice. some how i got stuck up here in the northwest.

but last night a few of us made the snow and ice tolerable for a few hours.

ill leave it short and sweet.

3 subies + snow + skagit county + austin and myself + state patrol and/or burlington police = one amazing night. i wish i could have gotten some pictures or video from everything.

[gotrice93]

i am going to school for autobody so i love the ice and snow. personally that means once i get out of school that is my money maker.

[eliteautosport.net]

Im ready for it to snow more so all the ice on the roads dosent go away

[Domesticated]

i dont mind, watching all those people in muscle cars and big trucks and suvs driving like assholes and hitting stuff. most of them think cause they have awd tanks that they can stop and turn better. but my neon does good. studded i-pikes on my light little car handles great. plus i have an $200 orbital battery so all i have to do is tap the starter and it turns over

[MetaEnder]

Separate "don't care as much about you" winter cars FTW.
