She's not afraid of the snow

Just testing out my new LSD on my car with the Blizzaks I have on today during the snow storm and I'm Impressed.... The tail can come around but if you're a good driver you'll be able to counter steer and straighten her out. Sometimes I actually let the drift continue for a little fun . I did a video last year of how the car handles in the snow. Might do another one this year with the LSD. Had to put the Procede into map 0 as even stock has enough power to go sideways in the snow... Only got stuck when the snow was higher than the chasis height and even then i just powered my way out of the snow!

Some pics of her

We got hit with a ton of snow in the last few days. I think about 12 to 14 inches. My car likes snow too!

small village gas station...


You can see how much snow we got next to these trailers...

SparKasse... local bank/ATM...

The best part about driving my 1er in the snow (besides the incredible fun you can have with a RWD car on a slippery surface) is the fact that it's going back to the dealership at lease end. Absolutely no guilt with regards to winter driving! Booyah!
