Lol whatever happened to getting out and offering people a push?
It probably wouldn't have worked because our summer tires turn to hockey pucks in the cold. I remember when I got my Z out one week/skif of snow too early and I basically ended up doing the same thing. Once I pulled out of my driveway I knew I was in trouble... I couldn't get back in my driveway, coudn't get to work, then I tried to do a 3 point turn and got stuck on the grade created by the crown in the road eventually I got free and just had to park it on the side of the road and walk to work lol. Oh I guess I forgot to mention the detail of all the morning traffic as it was just when everyone was leaving for work in the morning! Ugh.

HAHAHA I was there that night and saw this guy and talked to him. I went through the car wash and the reason he is stuck is because there are 3 HUGE pot holes there. He bottomed out for sure. His tire actually fell in and got stuck. There was almost no snow in the middle just lots of ice around the water filled deep pot holes. Its a 2006 GT with the rays wheels. No mods from what I saw.

Judging by the video, the front tire is stuck in a huge pothole and there's no traction to the rears because of ice and/or 19 inch fat summer tires in the rear.
Probably should be running a skinnier and smaller tire during the winter. He's running his GT staggered setup, a fat 19 inch summer tire in the rear. The pothole doesn't help either, but winter tires would probably have got him enough traction to pull out of it.
At 34 seconds, you can hear what a new clutch sounds like.
