Title: Snow and ice is perfect for running in a charger
Post by: PeteG40 on January 12, 2010, 04:48:31 PM
Why?  ???

For both you -

1. need to keep low revs
2. need to keep speed down
3. need to keep off boost (to avoid slipping and to run in charger)


Just a shame putting a fresh charger on in the snow aint any fun.  :(

During snow and ice the more perfect thing to do is stay indoors.  Take a leaf out of DK's book.

Hayesey has a go at DK for being a recluse.. but hayesey out and about broke his arm....

DK proves his point that staying in is the best thing to do!

Sue the Council and get paid with tax payers money if you're successful. Hmm less grit next year then.

yeah I should have taken a leaf out of dk's book.  spent most of wednesday in hospital after breaking my arm, done a proper job on it too, humerous bone clean in two pieces.  so no doing anything with cars (even driving one) vfor a couple of months.
