Damn — Color me green with jealousy! All we’ve gotten is rain — though it is very lightly snowing here, with temps in the mid-teens, which make a light but slippery snow!

Yeah, I grew up in NE Ohio where we got a lot more snow than we do here in the Columbus area. I hate rain in the winter. If it's going to be cold, cover everything in white so we don't see all the browns and grays....

The beading is noticeably less tight with Bead Maker than either of the base layers (it's not bad, just not crazy like a ceramic). But Bead Maker is far slicker and glossier. Unless beading is your #1 goal I really like Bead Maker as a topper.

Not the way you want to see your ride, but lots of fun on the non plowed roads today

FINALLY got a (sort of) snow picture here in South Jersey:





Not much of a snow but it’s enough to at least grab a quick shot. After taking this picture, I went out on some unplowed, snow covered roads just to see how the handling is (first Quattro car) on some snow.

Results:
1) I will be replacing the Pirelli A/S with a set of Nokian Snow Tires next fall!

2) This car is very quick to right itself in a deliberate spin out.

Love the RS style grille. What did you use to paint the bumper support?

I used a black “truck bed liner” rugged paint as I never want to pull the nose off again — especially to have to repaint the bumper.
