Im over in Beloit. We have probably 4-5 inches of snow now. The cobalt loves this shit, as does any other FWD with working Ebrake. However my RWD cars are not so much fun!!!

yeah we call them "busting shitties" well, we used to.

i haven't done them in my ss, but my old car, i was a pro! I could do shitties around any corner and feel safe doing it. i like my new baby too much to put her though it....at least for now. its only been on a snowy road once...i try to use another car if possible.

i was doing "wip shitties" lol in my first car which was an 88 lincoln mark VII in a parking lot and smashed my rear panel into a cement light pole. not too much damage but it sucked. That thing was like a boat in the snow.

It is also a lot of fun to take a 4wd truck and put the hammer down around a sharp corner!:twothumbs My ss hates this stuff. I can't move at all :cussing: and what is the worst is that I work were the parking lot is gravel and it doesn't get plowed unless it snows a lot. I highly recommend doing powerslides in a 4wd truck.

my cuz is from center moriches. Yo baltic ive seen you around. my girl lives off grundy on the south side of Vets. I was hating on you i have to admit. I couldn't believe someone put SS/SC wing on LS but to each his own. It doens't look that bad but rims would be a plus. See you around .

i just really like the look of the wing i'm not fronting that i am SS/SC i just really like the look i think it looks even better cause my car is lowered.. and yea i am working on rims . i have a set already but it's not my flavor for the car so i'm pulling the rubbers off and useing them since they are brand new.. yea i live on broadway so i'm always up in Vets

hell, if you ask me they should switch up these regions. Illinois and Wisconsin should be in the same one. It's stupid. Both Milwaukee and Chicago are large cities. Oh well, we just have to keep visiting.

I've got summers on the back, winters on the front. I was doin some "donuts" in a parking lot the other day, it was perfect traction for the winters to grip and the summers to slide, had to have done 5 complete circles before stopping. :lol:
