Title: Snow Rip
Post by: CamWeiss on December 13, 2009, 06:10:11 pm
Alright, so Victoria & area has got a snow warning in effect for the next couple days...

Who wants to go for a rip?

Once it's sticking to the roads, I'll be out and about before/after work.


My cell is 250  6 6 1 2 1 3 6. Call if you wanna go slide around.

Well, Shane and I went out.

Dan, you should have called.
Was fun.

Basically played in Langford and area for a while.

The alll season tires I've got on right now are about the worst I've ever driven on in the snow... And they're pretty new.
Also, I need a limited slip in the back. 6/4 non LSD... WTF?

Another also... I need a camera.

I would have called, but it snowed enough to cover the ground here and then turned to rain and washed it away.  I didn't expect langford to have all that much more but i guess i was wrong.

Victoria proper always seems to be a couple degrees warmer than the surrounding areas.

It snowed until 7:30 or 8 here, and probably a little longer in the high spots (Bear Mtn, etc).

I went off the road in that location when it was dry and warm out, my second day with my first dsm,  I learned about understeer real quick  :P

I was actually heading home from your place after grabbing some parts.

I detest that corner heading up into the Highlands, but on the way out its fun.. I had a lot of fun on that corner in my beater colt...Front wheel drifting well maybe its oversteer, fun nonetheless.
