Show me picture of your Z in the snow! 2-6-10

IMWEZL · 01-12-2011, 09:14 AM

I thought my GoPro cam was recording as I was sliding all the way to work but I failed. Although it was fun I won't be trying that again. Roads were empty at the time but now the beater's back in action.

We have had about 2 feet of snow here in the last two weeks...

dude thats so funny you say that, I get ragged on all the time.

I got that subaru for so cheap couldnt pass it up, but when looking for the winter car I vowed for it to be a different color. My girl has the white BMW, and my bro who lives with me has the white Z... I got the 370z after him and have caught crap for it non stop BUT I had a red g35 before hand, went to trade for red Z, saw the white and said f it.. This Z was my first white car out of 10 or so.

Also here is a video of my tires at work... videos kind of long and boring and crappy but you get the point by watching any 20 second clip of it after the dumb begining i kept in... lmao

When it was bad:
YouTube - 370z driving in snow with Bridgestone blizzacks

when it just started

I cant figure out how to embed them in here, im trying what used to work , but its just showing up black... they work well!

Awesome videos. Glad I don't live in the snow regions anymore. I'm annoyed that its about 40* right now here in Southwest Florida.

These are Enkei EK2 Eurosports 18" with Dunlop Graspic DS-3 Ice tires. These tires are amazing, better than Blizzaks and work great here in the frozen north. I don't take the car out in snow over a couple of inches, so ice tires are more important.

Yeah, I was gonna say... no way it was in summer tires. Blizzak's rule.

Appreciate it. I enjoy seeing my car being pulled up just as much as I like drivin it

LunaZ · 01-14-2011, 08:23 PM

Looks like the Storm King.

I can't wait until it warms up again. I could drive the Z now but I don't want to risk turning the RE-11s into ice skates if I have to brake hard for some reason.

370zproject · 01-18-2011, 04:52 AM

lol skates at 1k rpms lol
