Who's driving in the storm right now?

12/26/12
First real heavy snow of the year just hit N.CT / Mass. It's coming down fast.
I got caught right after it started and just got home driving on unplowed roads.

Went sideways a few times but in a predictable manner. General Altimax Arctic

There's this new supermarket next to my workplace and they finished parking lots but still are working on everything inside so I had this massive brand new parking lot covered with one inch of snow to play with... it was orgasmic.. I drifted around that place until my left hand and wrist got sore to the point that i had to take a break lol then I realized I was there for like 30 minutes and probably should go before police shows up.

It made me love my car so much more..

I drove mine home from work. its stock, I had no problem making it home, Had a little fun drifting. But when I went to park, our spots are on a slight angle. It took me about 20 minutes of beating on my car to get it into a spot.

Just pulled home. I went out with snow, but most of it was plowed with some slush. Got the car sideways a few times. Had on Blizzak LM22s.

Someday I'll have a garage. Someday. Mine hasn't moved since the snow started. Not looking forward to getting the snow off in the morning.

Heh. The snow actually came off in chunks. Was able to just pick up pieces and throw it off to help prevent scratches from pushing it off. And my 8 miles commute on a state road was basically just driving on water. No snow or salt that I could see/hear.
