s2000 just made it up and out onto the road[where some kids were palying ice hockey].


my drive has about 1/2" of ice covered by 3" of snow.

I had similar difficulties today

275/35 rears are nice when it's hot - a liability at the moment

A small video posted on here would be acceptable. I'm happy to make a £1 PayPal payment to see the attempt.
