[QUOTE="Buckrun, post: 37559, member: 51"] Shit the bed! I took a corner tonight and wheels didn't turn the way I pointed them! I ended up in a ditch! I used my army issue shovel and dug myself out! Took the traction control off so I could spin some wheels. I rocked her back and forth, and got it out! :thumb: Took me about an hour, but I made it home! Going home was just as big a trip! Phhhft! There were cars everywhere off the road! It was snowing so hard, it made your forward vision look like Picard just said "Engage" into warp drive! :smirk: It was crazy! It took me 2.5 hrs to go 1.0 hrs drive! You know there is always someone that thinks they can drive fast thru this shit! A Dodge Charger kept flipping his high beams on me, and I'm doing 50 mph in a blizzard, so he passes me in the unplowed lane. It wasn't 60 seconds later that I passed him and his car was at a 45 degree angle pointed down in a ditch! I know to drive in snow, the fewer inputs to steering, the better! It has been tough out here in the midwest! It's cold and snowy as F out here! 8 f tonight! We got rain a day ago, and that froze on top of all the new snow, then more snow! So it's lake a layer cake. You walk thru 6" of snow, then break thru the ice layer into more snow! It blows! The only thing good about this blizzard is that I will be in NY skiing my ass off the next two weekends!:ride: Is it me or do others think that skiing and riding are remarkably similar? :noidea: [/QUOTE]
