Default Bad Weather? I call it fun!

So, I may live in an area that gets plenty of snow, but that doesn't stop me from driving and having some extra fun.

Ice racing! I'm just running used Blizzak tires (225/50 - 225/55) and does very well acutally. Plus with the snow tires, this thing isn't too bad to drive around in, considering this is my first RWD car, and first car with more than 190hp lol







Anyone else have some extra fun in the winter with their Z?

Although photography is a hobby of mine, I cannot take credit for these (obviously, since I was driving lol)

Haha yeah. The car is not perfect. It's missing screws in some of that stuff and missing a few of the fender liners. I'm working on making it complete, but that stuff will wait till after winter

HAHA! Yeah, I won't disagree with you there, but while I'm here, at least have to make the best of it.
