Well it is snowing here ATM, and i just got out of school, as i was leaving the parking lot, i basically started sliding because i had absolutely 0 traction.. the rear end kicked out and i had to get on the gas to get the tail out of it..

soo.. i basically drifted by the gym teacher who was patroling the parking lot with my rev's at like 5k trying not to slide into a row of parked cars.. the look on the bastards face was priceless.. i was driving my cousin home and as we slid by we were both laughing our fucking ass' off.. i just kept on going and didnt look back LOL.

Then about 200 feet ahead (had regained traction by this time) i round the corner and immediatly go into a slide which was compeletely accidental, i counter steer and go full lock as fast as possible, but it was so slippery i went into a 4 wheel skid and did a complete 360.. infront of the principal... ROFL.

So yep, tomorrow will be interesting, i suspect i will hear the not so uncommon call of 'blue bmw owner please come to the front office' in home room..

At least i have my cousin as a witness to say that i had absolutely no way of avoiding the slides..

taken 2 mins ago.. all the roads look like this. I have alot of experience driving in this shit and damn i have never seen it this slippery, i literally was completely unable to control the car through corners.. the rest of the way home was full of 4 wheel skids and some 180's as well.

That sounds so fun

**komodo** · 03-02-2006, 04:29 PM

Though you're probably lucky you got home safe, heh. After the safety part is passed though, it sounds fun as hell.

Let us how how school goes tomorrow.

sounds fun, as long as u keep it safe. when u do it on purpose its ok cause u can usually control it better, but when its on accident it can be really scary cause u dont know if ur gonna hit something. Good luck with the admins at skool

About an inch and a half over here today, mostly hail and freezing rain. But yea it was slippery as hell, antilock brakes saved my ass more than once.

i wish it was snowy here, thunderbird+snow+empty parking lot= good video. im kinda curious what they will say when you get to school, haha, good luck.

**catalyst** · 03-02-2006, 05:21 PM

holy shit, there have been so many accidents here in the past like 4 hours, people stuck all over the place when i went into town (took the e34 cause its got snows)

theres more than 6 inches on the ground and its not letting up yet, looks like there wont be school tomorrow after all

I have never been in such slippery conditions, my dad who has lived in NE his entire life agreed, he said there were cars off in the ditches all over the freeway when he went to pick my sister up.. insane.

witeshark · 03-02-2006, 05:25 PM

Wow! Sounds like it's getting pretty tricky now

**bmw4life** · 03-02-2006, 06:19 PM

Today here it was close to 80 degrees and I hope it stays this way, I'm tired of winter.

Nice i managed to get the e30 stuck today in a parking lot that was plowed poorly, luckily there were some guys nearby who gave me a push and got me back on my way.

Once my friend's MUSTANG (ChrisWorrell) hit a curb in the ice/snow and wasn't drivable, so I had to drive out to him in my BMW and give him a ride home.

I love my car.
