here's another.

this is going about 50.

 

im dreading our snow storm...it hasnt hit hard yet by me

 

AH, I love arizona, I don't have to worry about putting up with this kinda weather. So my rx8 is being driven 365 days a year!

 

mine is too?

haha.

 

oh and that was taken up by the canadian border over christmas. i don't think it'll be that bad down here.

 

Here's a few new shots after the mess we just got this past weekend...


I'm pretty sure there is and RX-8 under here....




OMG I WAS RIGHT!!!





This morning on the way to work...



And about 20 minutes ago sitting in the lot at work...

 

Yeah - I don't like driving mine in the winter... but I want to enjoy the car... I'll have enough to buy a jeep or something over the summer that will be my winter car next year.

This car can be a winter car. as long as the snow is below the ground clearance.

I love this picture personally... the car started this trip completely clean with no snow on it... it took 4 days for the ice to melt off the grill.

*note how the ice formed a "V" off of the rotary emblem up front!*

 

LOL WUT

 

haha. that's intense.

 

Shhhh...she's sleeping.

 

...although you have the opposite problem to deal with. While you are trying to keep the temps under control, we are having pleasant 70s, and 80s

I also have to say, I think you people in the no-winter regions are missing out on what single digit temperatures do for a fully warmed up engine at full throttle.

 

 

todays weather in Chicago....f'n freezing...i was in class for 4hrs got back to my car, started on first crank but skyrocketed to 4,000RPM...I Was like WTF!!!!! shesss gonna blow.

 

That ^ -16 is awesome!

 

Bone chilling.

 

wow, glad we don't get that crap down here in GA, too cold. No thanks. it is 13 today, and it bites.

 

Good point. This arctic air is a poor man's FI system.

 

true, the car does like the cold air, maybe it will be somewhat cold when we hit the track in a couple weeks, that would be nice, a little intake air temp reduction is always good.

 

Well i put mine away as soon as the state put calcium and salt down on the roads. That wont be on my toy. plus its a good time to mod it with out rushing, because of a show or event.

 

Too bad the roads around me are still covered in ice and snow. I can't rev the car over 4 grand to even take advantage of it. haha

 

wicked picture

 

Sweet.

 

its amazing what snow tires do, i dont have a picture of my 8 in this storm, but its fully capable of the same thing. i have the blizzaks on the 8 and i have the dunlops on my bmw. i drove through this without problem!

 

Not an inch of the front without 1/4 inch of ice - oh how I wish salt wasn't destroying my car each winter...

 

wow it actually plowed through all that??
