lol! Great quote, awesome picture!!

Always good to know that there is hardcore S2000 owners out there!! Let us garage/track queen car owner feel much better.

I like to be able to tell people when they ask me if I drive my car in the winter that: "Nope, I don't drive mine, but I know it could be done, even in the snow!"

I had to. I was kicking up so much powder, it would have filled the cabin! Look at my rims, even!

Lesser of two evils?

er...
Sacrifice in the name of fun?

um...
It was too cold and it may have damaged the top?



I've never hesitated to drive the S in the snow. Though the first day I had it and was forced to drive it to work on 1/4" of dusted snow with ES100s, that was a little stressful.

Once I got it to Schwabs and got the Observes on, I was trekking all over the place.
The passes don't even bother me as long as *I* don't have to plow the snow too much for ODOT.

it is interesting that the front of the car is clean, and the back is covered in snow.

I don't think me and Rachel would make it to this last beautiful sunny drive this Saturday due to my car's clutch starting to slip. it's just bad timing. but then we can still go but no vtec.

Marc...it's the last drive of the year, you HAVE to go. You have 3 days to fix it, you're a mechanical genius, just fix it.

Comon Marc.. You gotta come. Just don't do any red line shifts and bang the gears, your clutch shouldn't slip that much right?

If and when it does slip, just pretend like you have VSA.
