Snow is here... MR2 crash season all over again.

Be carefull peeps ! On roads which hadn't been cleared I found it near impossible to drive. Braking from 5mph would result in me skidding even !!

Be carefull !

.....and it's freezing tonight, so tomorrow will be a whole host of fun. I envisage a 20MPH journey up to the motorway - lovely :(

Yeh great fun, tried to drive up a hill that hadnt been gritted, got stuck half way up facing side ways, then had to trundle back down at 1mph or less, sliding all over the :censor: ing place, only to watch a :censor: ing nova drive straight up.

on hill ive found that alternatly dumping the clutch then the gas will start u going, then as u build up a little more pace u can keep the gas held for longer. U'll drift up at an angle which looks cool as and scares the s**t outa people of the pavement!!!

Hehehe....summer here :P

Mind you the car doesn't go as hard in the heat. Even in winter we only get rain....maybe once in a blue moon a but of ice....nothing like a clear as winter day then a NICE COLD night to boost hard :)

I suppose you could argue that it is a safety feature that prevents you from crashing in the snow - though I doubt that was the real intention......
