I fear no snow! - LotusTalk

Noizemaker · 12-18-2008, 07:47 PM

.... okay. Just a little maybe.

Sad Lotus wants to play.

Triumphant Lotus says "Screw this winter stuff, i'm out! Escaaaaape!"

Newly mobile Lotus says WHEEEEEEEEEE!

Fleeing Lotus exclaims "See ya, suckers!"

... followed by "Hey guys.... uh, i'm kinda... can I get a push?"

After being pushed, Overconfident Lotus goes WHEEEEEEEE and over-rotates for the driveway, and is given a second push in by the guys who unseated him before.

All in all, a really fun day. We got about a foot of snow outta nowhere, I had to take the lotus out. I really want snow tires now. When it was moving it went exactly where I wanted until I did stupid things to spin it. Whoops.

Nothing like messing around, doing donuts in the snow like you were 16 again!

Badass....all you need is a lift and a winch!

Def make a post if you ever get around to that snow tire idea.

I left the lift behind when I moved up to Seattle.

Snow tires aren't gonna happen this winter, i'd need a 2nd set of wheels, but next winter? It's on!
