I hate ABS! I disabled it on my SC1. On the redlines that light annoys me though, so I leave the relay in. Turning the car off and back on should re-enable it. Also, if you sequence the e-brake and brakes just right while moving, no matter the car, it will disable the ABS until the car is re-started. Some are easier to trip than others.

Yep haha. I don't know the sequence, or if it is specific at all. I usually just yank the ebrake up a few times while hitting the brakes a few times and it eventually works. On my cars and friends cars ranging from early 90's to upper 2000's. I discovered it by accident while "drifting" years ago, go figure

Feels warm out if the wind but then you step into the wind and get a rude awakening.

How much snow do you guys have on the ground up there? Ours has settled with the warmer temps yesterday and today so far, and it is supposed to be in the 30's all next week. We have about 4-6" on the ground depending on the place.

Its been hella cold here too, with the random couple days where it was high 30's. This week is leveling off though and into next week. SUpposed to be in the lo 40's a couple days next week, but who knows. Our snow melted some last friday when it got to 39 and rained, and then turned the town into an ice block the next day when it was -50 lol. Some melted yesterday too, and it should continue!

I remember up until about 5 years ago December was always in the teens and 20's with the occasional single digit numbers highs and maybe 30* once or so, and January was about the same, but with usually a sold week of below zero highs, and if it hit 30* it was like some miracle. Now it does whatever it wants. 2 winters ago we had 50's and 60's in every month for at least a few days and only 4" of snow all year. And it was 85* in mid march. It was awesome, but VERY unusual. This year we've had the coldest December recorded for over 100 years and January started the same way, now we are getting 30's and 40's. The average temp is like 22-23* right now for a high, we get our averages in some weird ass ways lol.
