Default Roads are COLD

Well gang,

After running up thru 3 gears and spinning the tires the entire time this morning on Industrial, I thought I'd make a friendly reminder that these roads are frickin' cold and your tires aren't gonna warm up for nothing. Keep it in mind the next time you jump on it or take a fast corner!

Even our torque monster has enough to break loose. I think even J.P. will have to watch it!

Word to the wise,
Hockey

P.S. For those that travel on Flamingo heading West from the Strip, Metro has been seriously cracking down this week. Motorcycle cops with radar guns running in packs of 2-3. They've had people pulled over most of the week. Hualapai between Trop & Flamingo has been a hot spot too. It is 35mph there, not 45mph like the rest of that stretch and they are not being nice. Carry on.

yup cops everywhere... becareful everyone... it is after all the end of the month so yeah.. they're out.. and its holiday season... wait till christmas and new years it'll just get worse... so becareful guys!

yup the roads are real cold.. no grip wutso ever! its all good though.. just drive carefully... it seems to me that when the weather changes so suddenly like this... people become more stupid when it comes to driving... its like when its not all nice and sunny... people dont know how to drive.. its annoying ya know what i mean... so yeah... gotta becareful for cold and slippery roads... and stupid drivers that dont know their car and how to drive it for shit! i think from here on out.. it'll get keep getting colder... maybe even some more snow for this winter than the last...

speaking of cold, I was rolling dolo in the Nissan R34 GT-R V spec II this morning and decided to give it the 'ol Tokyo tumble. As I was floating an 85mph drift through the intersection of Peace and Hualapai I spotted two occiffers. I guess my exceptional drift dropjawed the potbellied one cuz I saw him unintentionally drop his doughnut into his cup of Joe. Anyhow, the red and blues immediately lit up and the chase was on. I ended up losing them at redrock hotel/casino as I drifted up the entire parking structure. Luckily I escaped through the back tunnel. Anyhow, the HICAS 4-wheel steering system glued the rubber to the pavement like a handful of flies to a pile of shit.
