Sigh, I'm bored. I miss my car. At this point I would normally go get in my car and thrash around town for a bit hitting my favorite on ramps, yield signs, neighborhood turns. Nothing better than riding around listening to some good music and letting the engine breath.
Post here when you're going for a drive, cause sometimes there isn't much better! 12/4/2010 2:21:29 PM |

ehh, this snow sucked.
last year when it snowed it was awesome. i left my street tires on because i didnt think it was going to be a big snow deal. but it was. i was debating the rally tires, but screw swapping tires in the cold.
plus the street tires made it more fun! 12/5/2010 3:38:53 PM |

I just got done driving a GT3 at VIR. I cannot believe how awesome this car is. Amazing that a bone stock car from 2004 can hang with some of the very best cars coming out today, and still drive home. There's hardly any wear on the brakes/tires. A car that is literally happier doing 115-120mph in the upper S' than 100, my my, what a car. 12/5/2010 10:10:50 PM |

Oh TKE-Teg. At first I thought you were trolling, but then I went back and realized you haven't posted in the Subaru Turbo Talk Thread. I'll let you do the reading, I don't really feeling like typing it out.
The good news is that I will let you live. 12/6/2010 7:19:18 AM |

^^^Yeah dude I'm not a Scooby guy so I haven't been going in that thread. shmorri2 pointed me in the right direction though. Damn I am sorry! Fighting warranty claims (especially one so massive and financially damage) is a bitch. Best of luck.

My tires don't even like temps below 40°F, whether its wet or dry. It's like they're bricks or something 12/6/2010 10:00:40 AM |

i love them, and didnt want to wear them out on the street. i didnt expect the snow to stick like it did last year.

I need some more of those tires, but the subie needs refreshing before it needs tires 12/6/2010 11:08:50 AM |
