Snow Drifting
For those with LSD who snow drifts? Very easy on the car and very easy to do! I love it. Every winter. Now today was fun because there is a level one snow emergency here downtown where my office is. There are no cars parked on the road thus I had five lanes to play with. You don't expect to see a car drift a corner downtown. 
A guy walking his dog was dragged by it when he stopped in shock at the site he was seeing.
So any fun snow stories or videos?

I wish it snowed down here in aus like it does in the usa, best we get is rain.
Used to street drift at a corporate office estate in the rain and hail. Was the best spot because no one ever came, we were there sliding for 3 hours straight once in the rain and not one person came along
But thanks to the new laws (impound your car if caught doing "hoon" activities, big fines etc) I kinda don't street drift any more

Yea, my SE handles like 4wheel drive. I can break it loose really well but can bring it back really easily. If I want to get really fancy I can dump the clutch and just slide. Release and I pop back into a straight line. Now of course I can break it loose without pumping the clutch in snow so it's really easy on the car.

dry tarmac or atleast rain at the most is more fun, when winter comes i'll take the daily driver out and screw around in the beginning but after a few goes it gets boring there just isn't enough speed in the snow and nothing bad can happen so the excitment factor isn't so great i guess.

Decent looking front airdam. Any info on it?
I'd like to have a front airdam, but my car sits so low, I am a little weary of the fiberglass units I have found. The roads (or what pass as roads) around here would prolly beat it to death.
