I've driven the evo a few times but I normally won't daily it. Not because it doesn't do great on the snow and ice, but because I don't want any other asshats running into me. If I bring it out its usually not 'peak' traffic times.

The truck mobs, is a blast to drive and people give you alot of room. BUT, I need new tires.

I got a cash offer I couldn't refuse so the Evo has sold. I may try to buy another one after we get this house buying stuff done. So if you see my car you can still wave, the new owner has had evos before and is going to be doing some big work on tho car.

I think they close the gates at 10. But during the day when it's clear and sunny it is an absolute blast. When I get my new Evo I'm def going up there for some shots.

I'm not saying you should go flying around up there at 40 or 50mph. My car drifted just fine at 15-20.

Left Anchorage Friday afternoon to head back to Fairbanks, hour outside of Fairbanks my radar goes off, caught him at least a mile away on a straight stretch, couldn't even see him due to it being so cold with the fog. I was well under the speed limit as I passed him and he still flips around and pulls me over. Starts out for not having my license plate mounted to the front bumper (in the windshield at the moment) and fortunately he was a nice trooper and had some good conversations as we sat in his vehicle to discuss everything. Another trooper (one that pulled me over about 2 months ago on my way to Anchorage to find my lady friend a car, gave me a fix it ticket for tint and told me my exhaust was to loud and tail lights could not be tinted) pulls up behind us and asked the trooper I was sitting with if he could have a word with him. The trooper steps out of the vehicle and hops back in within a minute. Tells me how the other trooper recognizes my vehicle and would like to do a search on my car for drug trafficking. Crazy right? They see my car twice and think I'm trafficking drugs? I said whatever go for it. I'm not that kind of person so of course he finds nothing but my radar detector stored away in my glove box, the troopers had a good laugh about that with me and let me go without a ticket. Ha.
