Default So excited...

Well, weather.com predicted 1-2 inches of snow for the Cleveland area, and from the looks of it, where I am there is about 4 inches on the ground, and it shows no signs of stopping. After lunch, im picking up my car and trying out the quattro in winter weather for the first time.

I cant wait!!!

Im actually from Chicago, and since I started school in Cleveland, it seems that it snows way more here. Im hoping it will be snowing a lot over my winter break though, when Im back in Chicago.

From having Quattro in Jersey last year i can tell you first hand.... its amazing.... just dont think your going out there superglued to the pavement.... Buddy decided he had Quattro so he was invincible in the snow.... not 5 minutes and he was in a snowbank after pulling a 360 in a parking lot... funny ****... just be safe and enjoy!!

SO, I just got pack from the parking lot, and I gotz goooooood news.

I found out on my first attempt at doing donuts that my car does some sick axis spins. I didnt know what that meant until my friend told me that is what I was doing. It was mega fun.

Cant wait to do it again.

Oh ya, all season tires own. Grippy enough to drive safely, slippy enough to have loads of fun.

Last 2 days here have been snow! (Around Seattle) My quattro saved my *** a few times goin up hills. I was passin all the fwd and rwd cars spinnin their tires on the side of the road. I actually hit a HUGE patch of black ice going across a bridge at like 30 mph and fishtailed and ended up doin a full 180. I was scared sh!tless but my car is fine nonetheless (thank god). Then ended up closing the bridge due to a few accidents. I need to find a big empty obstacle free parking lot to have some fun in.
