cop-oh, ok, well i dont give a ****, i was doing it earlier in loveland (nearby city) with my car and my buddies....

Dude, that is so cool. I firmly believe that that you need to get the car sideways to become an effective winter driver. When you're sideways in real life, you're going to forget everything you've been told and everything you've read... but you'll remember the motions... and THAT is what's going to keep you alive.

I've been in Colorado my whole life and I've never had a serious accident -- no injuries, no rollovers, no insurance claims. I think a lot of that has to do with the experience gained from skidding around parking lots and fishtailing down roads.

If you see that cop again, you've got to buy him a donut or something. That's really cool that he was actually looking out for you guys instead of just being a dick. That said, it sounds like you guys did the right thing, too. The cones helped.

Been like that here for the last 2 days. Some snow with lots of ice. This morning was pretty crazy.

I have been driving the WRX though. A world of fun in snow. The VX is staying OUT of the snow nowadays. Fact is, they lay down excessive salt here and I want none of it anywhere near the VX undercarriage. Let it eat the WRX.... there are a million of those out there.

Oh ya, Paul.... them turns look like fat whales! Ebrake it. FAR more fun in snow cutting those cone turns. You're safe doing it in the snow with the. Trust me, if anyone was gonna lose it, it would have been me, and I have yet to do so.

thats my theory, and ive always driven in colorado...the more practice you have without control, the better your reactions are gonna be when it happens by accident....

plus its REALLY fun to have the guy with the STI ask me if i think he is keeping up with me
