Fun in the snow

We got to work today, and decided it was as good of time as any to have some fun with our toys...

Looks like you guys had some fun.. Unfortunatly wasnt as fun for me, hit the curb pretty good with both rims. Hopefully the back rim isnt bent but im pretty sure i need a alignment.

I made it to and from work ok, but it took me over twice as long to do it, as I never went over 15mph. These Advans suck *** in this stuff.

Yeah believe me I found out Sunday that Advans suck in snow. As I stated in the sightings thread, kissed a pole with the front of my car.

Parking lot had freezing rain the night before, and a blanket of snow. I didn't know about it, and so when I tried to turn at about 5mph, the car kept going straight, and ran into a pole.

Good news thus far though. Talked to my insurance, and looks like it will be a no fault accident, due to weather and not driving fast. I have loved the SE front lip, and it looks to be cheaper than the normal front lip (how the heck that works I don't know), and maybe an aftermarket IC will be in order. If they have to replace the hood (thought it doesn't look that way) I might look into something also.

But I totally wish I had my car today to play around in. Dangit.

Aftermarket parts are cheaper than the factory stuff anyway. Looks like the Evo took a punch but will be happy with its new parts.

And on top of that, I just got offered the job I interviewed for. So my Evo is going to become my weekend driver. I'll have a C ride in a few weeks..
