Now i dont subscribe to that theory because i will hit the one obstacle in a totally empty car park

Shad · 19 Dec 2010 at 10:39

Impressive, but what you should've done is jump out of the car and let it do it's own 4-wheel drifts. Amiright?

Locky · 19 Dec 2010 at 10:49

What a doesy cow, women leave the hubbys BMW at home when it snows, you don't have a clue.

rojones · 19 Dec 2010 at 10:53

LOL ..... hitting the house lol

@Shad

Gutted for that girl & I wonder how many more people just sat indoors watching her.

I'm straight out if it's a woman I can't help myself.

More people should get out and 'play' in the snow it would help them understand how cars behave in adverse conditions.

Indeed. The whole car drifts sideways as opposed to just the rear sliding out in RWD.

I can get the EVO X spinning on the spot as if its RWD, I just turn ASC off, set too gravel mod and just boot it and the it just spins on the spot, but yes it can take some doing as otherwise you just just 4WD drift.

Aye always gotta help a damsell in distress.

Whats funny, they are there struggling, can't move, just pull up and just say want some help and they are like yes please, get in, drive car off, there ya go your fine now.

They are like how you do that.

acemastr · 19 Dec 2010 at 11:48

I'd have gone out there and had a fit at her for hitting my house with a 1.5 ton car! even if it was completely hilarious lol

Over fueling, Or is it mapped like that for a reason?

Bit of both, mapped a bit rich, hence the bangs and flames.

Guys, if you see the incar footage bit where I'm doing donuts you can see the car can quite comfortably spin on the spot, but it gets a bit boring just doing a donut

Clearly she was heading to River Island or Toys R Us for those life or death presents.

Have you taken the cat out as well?

(meow)

ScoobyDoo69 · 19 Dec 2010 at 12:18

The exhaust is completely straight through, apart from one rather large resonator (more to tune the noise than reduce it

)

Quite pricey mind, hks ssqv methinks, mine is a forge recirc so it sounds like i've dumped a bag of squirrels down the intake when it vents.

Scoobies and snow are much fun, btw is your diff bias set to the rear?

Missed this, yes very expensive. What was I thinking?

I think my car is 35/65 Front/Rear bias. When under a little throttle (in the snow) the front washes wide, only when you give it a little boot does the back end follow.

Indeed - clearly somebody who is clueless re cars is also a complete bimbo and deserves our ridicule rather than our help :rolleyes:

. My sis has no clue whatsoever about cars but is exceptionally intelligent in other areas (she is in the medical profession) and I would hate to think of somebody sitting laughing and filming her in a similar scenario rather than actually going out and helping her. It's not like she laughs and points when somebody comes in with an obscure illness and doesn't know what to do about it..

ScoobyDoo69 · 19 Dec 2010 at 14:16

Common sense should come into place with driving. Intelligence is not needed, just some good sense. Of course if you leave a car in drive or gear it will want to move of it's own will, how can you be driving and not know that?!

Joshy · 19 Dec 2010 at 14:20

And I thought my exhaust was loud! :eek:

Doesn't a car that noisy get on your nerves?

That dump sound sounds bloody awful. It's almost worse than the fake one you put on Saxos.

what? sounds great imo.

Generally no. He's probably not doing 50 miles on the motorway every day.

ScoobyDoo69 · 19 Dec 2010 at 14:26

Pardon?

Not really, it's not a daily driver, but even when it was I didn't mind the noise. It's surprisingly not too bad inside with the windows up. Plus it's a Subaru, it has to be loud in a deep bassy way !
