Here's a couple people who thought it was a bright idea cruise their Vette Z06 and their motorcycle up to the Eisenhower Tunnel. WTF...snow storm so I think I'll test my 500hp rear wheel drive Vette in the snow!!

I've know people who drive 500 hp Supras in the winter. Well, they claimed they did.
Who, John? [Tooth]Quote:

I can see that, that car was a tank I'm sure. Still no way in hell I'd travel into the mountains with a Vette or other rear wheel drive car with lots of HP and no weight.Quote:

Supra's have turbo lag though.
A buddy of mine in high school had a 63 Impala 4 door with the 3 on the tree and straight 6.
We called it the "Black Bitch" and that car would go places a 4x4 would drop its ball bearings. I mean it was a fricking tank, we even crossed the Platte river down by 470 in it. It reminded me of the Lincoln in "Animal House". My sister had a 65 Bug that was impressive in the snow as well.
As far as bikes in the snow I used to see quite a few when I was out in a plow. Some hardcore dudes to be sure.
The ones that always crack me up are the wetbacks in their "Tejano" cruiser F150's. Those low profile wiiiide tires really work well in the snow eh? Just love watching them putt along at 5 mph and the ass end all over the place!
