Drove from Long Island to New Jersey then drove around NYC on the way back home.
Didn't crash but on the way to NJ something ripped a hole in my sidewall (had to quickly replace one rear tire).

Keeps my MT driving skills sharp with the taxis and pedestrians. Though it screws up my blood pressure. |

Tried to be aggressive turning left from a traffic light on a quiet road with sports mode on yesterday. Car gave a little more slippage than I was expecting and the back wheels made some deep sounding noises (what I assumed to be TRC kicking in). The smile was definitely a nervous one - ended up dreaming of spinning out while I slept last night too.
On the plus side, I did not crash |

I would have loved to crash my FR-S today, but I couldn't get more than 3 inches from my parking space.
It was painful to watch that Forte, Maxima, Altima, and a range of other cars breeze up the icy road like it was nothing while my car just sat there and spun the tires. /Sigh |

Drove in some fog where visibility was maybe 50 yards on a backroad. Now home safe
