Bright Red- 1999 Trans Am Ws6
Midwest Ice and Snow storm
Holy shit it is NUTS here. I took the trans am out early with some 275-40-17 M+S Pirelli tires on it, FUCKING WORTHLESS. Traction control kept smacking my foot with the fucking gas peddle over and over, and the Abs is so sensitive you push it like a half an inch and it goes to rock solid. Never had abs that felt like that. I slid at a stop sign, and when tires slid the snow piled up in front of them and I actually got stuck, had to back up and go foward.
Whipped donuts all day though! Now with all the ice on the trees and wires, I have heard five calls about trees on roads, and seven calls about live wires down. According to news, in my area over 2000 without power! All the ice on my trees branches are falling like crazy, every once and a while a six inch thick branch falls and hole fucking house shakes!
P.S. Driven four rear wheel drive cars in the snow, this is the worst one ever. The crest of the road was throwing me sideways even.

4-5 FEET of snow expected.
Glad that is the forecast about 2 hours from here.
This was last year at this time...
Measured 32-33 inches in my front yard.

2002 Z28 A4 NBM- Sadly now demodded :(
My motto: If it's gonna snow then I ain't gonna go!
Being a Los Angeles native and having experienced 3 winters in Colorado cured me of any need for having 4 seasonal changes.
