I might drive mine tomorrow because I have a dentist's appointment, but not sure yet. I won't drive it if the conditions are very bad.

There is nothing wrong with driving in the snow, the problem is Vancouver has got to have the worst faking drivers in canada. I grew up back east and this snow wouldnt do shiat for driving back east here everyone has a corenary

i gotta agree tho, some side streets are almost impossible to drive through b/c of the thickness. i got stuck a couple of times and took out half of my tire tread to get out

Drove about 100kms today. No problems whatsoever, only spun the tires a couple of times, but never lost control or anything. Overall the all-terain Pirellis were pretty good.

On a related note, I saw a black SS/SC on Westminster in Richmond this afternoon. Didn't look like the owner was a cobaltss.net member.

I could've been the black car you saw out on Westminster in Richmond, but I've also seen one out on Steveston Highway once and a while. Anyways, that snow was nothing, I learned how to drive in Saskatchewan haha, flying pass all the cars doing 30km/hr while I do a little bit of slippin to fall back into the groove in the road.
