khp Posted January 31, 2010 Report Posted January 31, 2010 I've had a blast for the last couple of weeks - spinning the rear wheels on the gas, making it slide even on the straights. And all in my dog-of-a-van Toyota HiAce, which is normally impossible to get to spin up the rear because of it's puny 78 ponies - of which several surely have moved on to pension. But come start of January, we have gotten another 4 inches of snow every week or so - like just this morning. And even with proper winter-tires, an underpowered, light, rear-wheel driven van can spin it up :D Awww ... I miss springtime so I can take out the bikes. Only comfort is that I giving the racer its proper amount of TLC at the moment (which makes me wanna go riding even more). Kai Quote

Kai I know what you mean, hadn't been riding since December schools really, so it was nice to get on the track in FLA last week. CF Quote
Bongo Posted February 3, 2010 Report Posted February 3, 2010 For a minute there i thought you meant on your bike, and i got very jealous of yoru GP skills!!! Actually, even in a car or van i mess it up and end up facing the wrong way lol. Agreed though, everyone should love the snow it's great!! Quote
