ok i know not many people drive their rx's in the winter especially with high salt in the area


but i've come to enjoying one thing about driving the rx-8 in the winter




i Love shooting up salt rooster tails and creating a fogging effect


people must think i'm crazy or something i dont' really have to drive too fast but about 100-110km/h seems to be the sweet spot in aerodynamics and the dusty road salt? everytime i do it i feel like i'm doing a bonneville landspeed run the salt is flying about 12 feet high and i'm sure it creates a blinding effect on drivers behind...

 

^glad you could share something this has nothing to do with the thread topic.

I also noticed wall of "salt dust" behind me while driving. What's weird is when you're behind a car doing it, you can't tell if you are being "salt dusted". Get up along side if that car and look. You'll notice that it's shooting dust also.

 

My car is white at the moment due to salt. It is too cold to wash it.
It is normally black.
