Anyways it snowed a bunch last night for the first time this winter. So after an hour of donuts in a friends s13 (all those things are good when it comes to snow) I took some pics. Enjoy they are ok, hopefully one of these days Ill actually get in my car and take pictures somewhere interesting.















One just to be dumb

Snow is cold white **** falling from the sky. we've had 40 cm of it past 2 days.

I'm glad I have an AWD winter beater though.


Awesome pics by the way!!

Snow is crazy stuff I know. I'd like it if it didn't mean they salt the hell out of the roads. Rust is lame.

I'd rather have lots of wind and rain than road salt that destroys everything on the bottom of the car... Wait, do any RX7's other than first gens have that problem? lol

I had fun driving my FC in the snow! Rust wont happen if you guys wash the undercariage after a snow storm. I've driven my FB thru 2 winters and no rust yet. You just have to take care of the car. I can't stand driving a front wheel drive car in the snow. My FC is perfectly tame enough to get around and kick the *** around when I want it to!

Thanks. It's just a Nikon D40 I recently picked up with the standard 18-55mm lens. But that last one was taken with a Nikon D1 with a 12-24mm Nikon fisheye.

LOL Did you really say that?

So you're worrying about some rusting that might occur under your car for the maximum of 3 months out of 12 of winter we get over a possible risk of having your home DESTROYED all year round???

LOL nice logic you have man.

Ill gladly pick 9 months out of a year of snow over your hurricane craze. But since i live in the northeast, we only get 3 months of harsh winter. And past couple of years, wasnt even really harsh. Last winter we got an average of like 6 inches of snow lol.

And thats what DD's are for. lol

On our local Mountain runs the minute it started falling!

I had more than this w/ my digital camera but lost them all unfortunately. When it snows... I'm hitting up the runs again w/ snow tires and taking massive amounts of pictures.
