holy crapola...that is a lot of freakin' snow. i'm scared cause MD is supposed to get some snow tonight and tomorrow. my poor baby doesn't even have snow tires yet.

OMG see what I have to look forward to next week. :) RSD how many inches(of snow) did you get?

ought oh ... no snow tires ... might wanna stay home! even with the tires she did slide around a bit, but nothing i felt i couldnt handle. i finally had to come home because i was afraid some dipshit was gonna run into me!

oh and btw, that was a virgin parking lot ... yea all those marks are mine :D:

haha!! so awesome...practice them drifting techniques. power over.

thats exactly what it felt like!!! drifitng all over the place! woohoo!!!

Still planning on it. Still waiting for my mom and brother to give me the low-down on all the family stuff going on. Our Christmas dinner for the entire family(dad's side) is on Dec. 17th.
Just to give you a little insight into how large my family is, last year there were approx. 175 people at our family dinner. We have to rent a place to have it plus cater it because nobody has a house big enough. Then just immediate family dinners from there on.....I hope. I only get back for family visits once or twice a year and my mother usually has something spontaneous planned.

Having all my winter clothes dry cleaned for the trip. I miss the snow,so It's something I've been looking forward to for weeks. :)

hey - Do you have full-size versions?? Great pics! :D

cool, well check the chicago meet thread for locations, times, etc. Thats where we'll post it. Guess i should get around to figuring out where we are gonna meet eh?

omg that looks SO MUCH FUN, i'd get snows JUST SO I can go drifting in the parking lot :D:

Haha, cool.... We just got about 5 or 6 inches here as well. I took a drive to play around, and am REALLY impressed with these tires (Dunlop WinterSport m3's). What tires are you using?

Wow - the grill packs full of snow

yep ive got the dunlop m3s myself....

Not bad wheels, sweet picture timing it almost looks like a movie

very nice!

I like the pics. Do you have a bigger pic of those rims?

Just saw you live in Chicago, ive got an ex that might still live there, and like the snow, I hope they both stay far away from Texas :) .

Good thing you don't live by the Midway Airport (http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/12/08/chicago.airplane/index.html) RSD. Sad story.

no, i hadnt had a chance to take any before the snow hit. they are the kazera kz-v's

yea i saw that. i heard the plane hit cars but i dint know it killed a little boy. thats just terrible ...

My sister-in-law lives 2 blocks from the intersection that the plane is sitting in. Took her hours to get through to get home. I spent an hour and a half trying to get around it because they closed down Central Ave and Cicero Ave to all traffic. Traffic on the alternates with the snow was a nightmare.

yep, but i dint want to kill everyones monitors with em. these are half size ...

Permission granted to kill mine - :D

I work on the south side of the airport at central and 63rd. Getting to work is going to suck tomorrow especially since the NTSB doesn't want the plane moved until they can get a good look at it in the morning.

Are those black wheels?

looks fun, doesnt seem like anyone is even around that lot, nice pics too

that first pic is a really good shot, any chance of psoting one just a bit bigger, I would like to ad it to my collection...the first RSD contribution.

Awesome pic RSD. I had my Blizzaks installed Wednesday night; none too soon! I was walking around my office all day telling everyone I wanted it to snow so I could really try them out. Did it ever; I drove about 50 mi. total last night. BTW, the Blizzaks were awesome. Glad to see others were having fun last night too.

Man, I miss snow! It just doesn't feel like the holidays down here in El Paso.

i had fun in the snow too... before i hit an unplowed road and did so much snow plowing that my radiator looked like a wall of a snow fort

wintersport m3's are awesome though

nice pics. 8 doesnt have to look shiny to look cool :yesnod:

Nice look with the blowing snow. I've never tried taking pics in such weather, but yours came out awesome. I'll have to try it too.

Wow, very cool pictures!

hey raz, i cant seem to figure out how to make part of my photobucket public while keeping other parts private ... anyone know how?

just show us your private parts. we won't tell.

I've thought about that before but haven't pushed all the buttons to know if it would do such a thing. A simple solution to that problem is to just use a different login for your private pictures.

I'm flying out of Midway on Southwest Friday nite for Houston, returning Sunday. I hope lightning doesn't strike twice.
