I am so glad I get to skip driving in the snow, I guess that being away at ISU without my car does have some advantages.

Looks like we are scheduled to get about 7 to 8 more inches of snow on Sunday or Monday!

I thought I'd like the Winter but now that I almost had 2 collisions it sucks. A couple Kirkwood apartments parking lots are pure ice, I came within a couple inches of hitting a Sebring. I had to sit in my car for about 10-15 minutes while the inch or two worth of ice on my windshield melted. Grr I hate this season.

AWD owns for snow driving/sliding/fun.

I went driving for awhile last night right after it snowed. So it was a perfect thin layer of fresh snow on all the roads. It was fun as hell. Stopped by the Old Target parking lot and did a few AWD donuts. Good times...good times.

I wish Cedar Rapids was a little more thorough with their plowing on Saturday.

But the tires being like this could've contributed.

I was going to the Longbranch because my parents were holding a party for their employees and there was free food. I was turning left towards Michaels and the car started to slide. The car ended up hitting the curb. Specifically that wheel. So I ended up having to get new tires and a different rim for it. It needs a wheel bearing, atleast, now too but I'll wait on that. I did get to beat one of my dad's shop cars for a little bit, if you saw a purple Neon in the Westdale parking lot whipping bitches on Saturday night :).

you should get a pair of studded winter tires to throw on the front of your car. then the front wheels will grip, and you can dive into corners fast, the front wheels will grip, the back ones will slide.

i believe theyre only like $60 a piece delivered to your door. worth looking into.
