Ditched Evo.

[Windsors 03 Cobra]

Last Saturday afternoon, Hy G & I94-Racine Co.
Roads were kinda nice and the ditching looked fresh, looked stuck and not parked.

Anyone here ?

[Yooformula]

I saw a red wingless one near the hospital with the driver acting like an ass. wouldnt surprise me if the driver did get stuck.

[MoCkiN U]

See a car like that one all the time around racine driving like an ass. Not sure if same exact one but not many around here black with bronze wheels

[1320PNY]

If it was a Subaru he could have backed out! I drive my Subi like a dumb#$s all the time and it is totally fun. Half the fun of last night's get together was driving through unplowed city streets!

[Car Guy]

Subaru AWD + snow tires = TONS of winter fun.....:headbang

[Taetsch Z-24]

So, is that the beauty of Mitsu's All Wheel Drive?

Chris

[Junky Giorgio]

that would be the beauty of high performance summer tires probably still equipped on an Evo.

[Car Guy]

that would be the beauty of BALD high performance summer tires probably still equipped on an Evo.


FIXED...!!! :thumbsup

I am amazed at the tires that some people drive around on, and in the snow on top of it.....:alcoholic




.

[Yeehaw]

i just wanna know why your mirror is pushed that way

[Car Guy]

To take the picture I'm guessing.....

[wikked]

I saw that on my way home last Sunday morning too, hah.

[Nick]

Subaru AWD + snow tires = TONS of winter fun.....:headbang

Agreed.

[Voodoo Chick]

I have seen quite a few of those around, drivers all acting like idiots. Doesn't surprise me at all to see one stuck like that.

[michelle]

I would think that EVO would have been able to continue on its way, unless there was another problem.

[WilliamZ]

Even brand new high performance summer tires on an Evo is dangerous in a little bit of snow.

[Car Guy]

I wouldn't run anything but true snow tires on an EVO if I was to drive one in the winter because of the tire size/width. Any 'all season' (3 season if you ask me :rolleyes: ) tire you get in the size needed will still be closer to a 'performance' tire opposed to one that will work well in the snow.....

It's the price you pay to play, if you want to stay out of the ditch that is.....:rolf

[Voodoo Chick]

I really think if people want to stay out of ditches, the real trick is......stop driving like an idiot.

[Car Guy]

Then winter driving would be borrrrrrrrrrrrrring.....:devil

[michelle]

I wasn't driving like an idiot and I still ended up in a ditch. It just happens sometimes.

[Windsors 03 Cobra]

I have seen quite a few Evo's driving around this winter too, even 1 evo ten.

Most of the people on this board drive like hooligans no matter the weather but it's doubtful you will see any of us in the ditch. We call it car control. Don't you have cookies to bake or something?:goof

[Waver]

sad really, I havent even had to use the 4wd on both of my trucks yet.......31x10.5 ftw!

[sloLs1]

no rally for you!

[Yeehaw]

sad really, I havent even had to use the 4wd on both of my trucks yet.......31x10.5 ftw!

only time i have so far is when we got that 15 inchs every other time two wheel drive plus at work all we have is 2wd trucks and we use them in every snow storm

im guessing his door was open ive never seen a mirror fold backwords or else its broken just was more wondering if he was stopped when the picture was takin

[lilws6]

Mirros usually fold both ways if they didn't whne you backed out of the garage and clipped the door it wouldn't fold and would break they work both ways always fun to fold your buddies mirrors in and watch em get mad. I drive like a hooligan in the snow its my drift fun can't do it in the summer car it would cost too much

Yeah, I have seen your idea of "car control" splattered all over the roads this year.......usually in ditches, or on their roofs, or with their whole sides caved in, surrounded by EMT's, police, and possibly the fire dept. Enjoying a drive is fine, if you like winter driving, that's fine too, but driving recklessly just to prove you're "bad ass" is not a good choice. Oh.....and I don't bake cookies, btw. I'm sure you'd be more the little cookie-baker-type than me. :thumbsup

[shoooo32]

:shadesI am badass. Thanks for noticing.

[Voodoo Chick]

Hell.....we allllll badasses here............:shades

You lie. If I asked you to bake cookies for me, they would be in my car, warm, when I got out of work. You know this!!!!:rolf

Oh, of course I'd bake them for you!! But you're special, you see......Not just anyone gets cookies! I can't guarantee they'd be good cookies, but I'd do my best, lol........

[Korndogg]

you just said you don't bake cookies..

[Voodoo Chick]

you just said you don't bake cookies..



I don't.......but if someone asks nice, I can at least attempt to!! See, my "domestic skills" are not exactly what you'd call......competent. I made brownies ( from scratch) years ago, and they were so disgusting. I hate cooking/baking with a total passion, I'd rather change the oil in all 4 cars here than cook a meal. But.....I also like to try to be nice, so if someone wants damn cookies, I try.....they might be like hockey-pucks.....but hell, I tried!!

lol

[Voodoo Chick]

Oh, I don't count a legitimate accident as "idiot driving." Sometimes, yeah...it does JUST happen, the tires lose traction, and then there ya go. I'm talking about the ones that seem to think they are immune to ever having an accident......that think they are just SO damn good NOTHING can ever go wrong for them. That kind of over confidence really irks me.

[pOrk]

How do you lose traction if you aren't driving like a tool? If its icy, you shouldn't have been going that fast to lose it on the ice. Right?

[michelle]

I'm not going to sit here and defend my driving. If you would like to believe I drive like a "tool" in my Taurus, then so be it. :thumbsup

[Car Guy]

There is a BIG difference between driving like a 'tool' and driving too fast for conditions.....

[Voodoo Chick]

My Camaro lost traction on a patch of black ice, and I wasn't even pressing her gas pedal. We were doing around 10 mph, and all of a sudden, she was just sort of floating across the road. SCARY shit. Nothing happened, I was able to get her to safely stop, but had there been a ditch in her way......yeah. Sometimes they do just lose it, but some people just drive like they're on a clear, bright, dry summer day......that is just idiotic.

SHO-OFF (shhttp://img.tfd.com/hm/GIF/omacr.gif off)
v.
1. To display or behave in an ostentatious or conspicuous way.
2. To drive like a tool and end up in a ditch, specifically in a Ford Taurus.

FIXED...!!! :thumbsup

[michelle]

But I wasn't in the SHO.

[1320PNY]

I'm just pulling your chain. I thought it was funny and I hope you aren't upset. I just meant that you usually go in the ditch when you are Showing Off, but since you had a Taurus, I went with the SHO-OFF. I knew it wasn't your SHO, you'd be nuts to go out in that during Winter.

[michelle]

It's all good. (:

[STANMAN]

It's all good. (:

This morning more than others:thumbsup:rolf

[michelle]

This morning more than others:thumbsup:rolf

Yeah, it was a rather nice, comical morning and it's only 7 a.m.

[STANMAN]

Yeah, got woken up to an AM delight, and that's always polite. Then the comedy started and it just was frosting on the cake. Today is looking to be a pretty awesome day:thumbsup

[michelle]

Well that falls into the "too much information" category Bob....

[STANMAN]

Well that falls into the "too much information" category Bob....

I was wondering if it was TMI. I wanted to illustrate how great this day is going to be though:thumbsup

[1320PNY]

Yeah, got woken up to an AM delight...

Is that anything like "Happy Family" at a Chinese restaurant? I'd rather phrase that like..."I was f*#kin', late to work today." :headbang

[STANMAN]

Closer to a "Happy Ending" at a Chinese massage parlor. Well, not closer, just pretty much the exact same:rolf

[SpdRcrZ]

wow

I <3 BCM


Oh yea, I drive like a tool all the time in the snow..... Its called RWD!

[Voodoo Chick]

RWD will treat you OK in the snow as long as you are very, very gentle with it.
