Went driving and my car doesn't get traction very well. Just for kicks I did a 5 gear burnout with my speedo at 120. I was probably really going 20 mph. | | | 12-04-2005, 07:17 PM | #3 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: Manassas, VA Posts: 4,129 | Here on Long Island.

Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Denver, CO Posts: 3,925 | We got 5 inches last night. I had some friends over from out of town, so I drove them around last night in the snow. My car hooked up amazingly well with 2 people in the back seat, 3 subs in the hatch and the Blizzaks. I did the city a favor by plowing the snow for them. With only ~3" of ground clearance I was plowing the whole time! __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 12-04-2005, 07:35 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Thousand Oaks, California Posts: 343 | I got about 2 inches here __________________ 1993 325is Hellrot Tribute to: 97 318ti Montreal Blue R.I.P 96 318ti Schwartz II | | | 12-04-2005, 07:40 PM | #7 | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Muncie, Indiana Posts: 1,551 | Quote: Originally Posted by DustenT I did the city a favor by plowing the snow for them.
