Went out last nite around 11 after roads were clear of regular traffic, conditions were slushy and some ice. On my way to i hit a ice patch at about 35mph traction let go, car swung around, turned the steering in direction car was sliding & adjusted as needed, pumped & locked the brakes so car stayed in one direction, hit slushy again, got traction and after about 100ft sliding sideways on a 2 lane road with ditch on both sides, it finally stopped facing opposite direction. Kept my cool the whole time. Then proceeded to parking lot and had my share of fun. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=144mNtyM-YY PS. No i didn't scrape at the end, mad JDM skills kicked in and i brushed the snow off the curb with my rear bumper lol.
Didn't get a chance to play but had some fun driving out of my parent's neighborhood.. my brother was coming down the street and just about slid into me then claims he did it on purpose (yeah right..) Anyways.. took this pic right after.. it was fun!!
tied two ropes to the back of the land yacht and got drug around in clothes baskets for about two hours...woke up this morning with road rash and a broken middle finger on my left hand. Good times...
I just got back from a parking lot off of king springs...great fun. First chance I've had to do donuts in a AWD car...and it was fun. I'm loving my WRX. I'll post some pics in a bit, gonna post my n00b thread with my specs and pics laterthis afternoon or evening.
i'm actually heading back up to the vet in two hours to pick that bitch up...had to get sutured, woohoo for spending what should have been bar money
drove a rwd car down the street on fuzion zri tires, arrived at Cul-de-sac, proceeded with ricer maneuvers, then returned home. on the Subaru, there were major patches of dirty ice/snow falling in the wheel wells after a drive, it was a mess in the garage.

I really just thought the sentimental value of that $20K+ car kicked in and you decided to stop. :rofl::rofl::rofl:
Had a great commute home in the LGT Friday night. Took the back roads while everyone stood in traffic on the highways. Had all 4 spinning in 3rd at one time. Was great fun.
