The roads are covered in snow and quiet and I needed to go food shopping and I stayed 2m from other cars.
Best fun i've had in ages, driving round the b roads with 4 decent winter/cross climate tyres, overtaking most 4x4's(unless they had decent thin tyres), more fun than a wet track day.(nearly as much fun as a sunny dry one round cadwell).
If you like sliding I would strongly recomend this but NOT with summer tyres.
I'm going to try some 185's on the rear for more grip if the snow doesnt melt soon,but could really do with some 155's on the front and a bag of sand in front as lack of front end grip is noticed on acceleration, a bit like driving an lt50 kids quad.
Love my engine in the right place lightweight rear wheel drive car made at the correct factory in the correct country with the correct quality control.
I still want a GT86 would prefer a 2000GT but i'm sure I would miss so much about the mr2, I dont think they are worth the extra money yet.

Sounds like fun. Missed the snow in mine. Not sure it would be fun on Rainsports though.

I loved the videos , it looks fun in the wet, but I liked the civic video best, looks so much fun, especially when you nearly loose it, I know how that feels. That 2zz sounds amazing and even better on overrun. Thank you hat made me smile.

They look great !
Took this just after I drove past a Range Rover being towed out of a hedge :)
Didn't get any wheel slip I didn't ask for, but even in a stock(ish) 1ZZ it was power oversteer on demand if you dropped a cog or two and wanted the back to come around.... really good fun... we need more of this please!!
See everyone. A mere beanie hat is all that is/may be required.
No need for 20kg of hardtop.
Well played Sir.

And that's why they are not called 'brainie' hats... ;)
