Thinnest on Oppo, my friend. (Though I imagine the racing Rallye's at least a touch wider than my base-model.)

Awwww Yisss, RWD in the winter.

props for not being a pussy and winterizing your car (says the guy who winterize his car).

Of course handbrake, but you can also do some left foot braking to maximise the weight transfer on the front of the car while turning. Hooning FWD on snow is a science...

Adding more throttle is just soooooo much easier.

it still amaze me that you guys can go a whole winter with summer tires.

It's illegal here, and it's a pretty hefty fine if you get caught. you get impounded and everything.

J-Turns are the most stylish way to enter a drift.

I have a Ranger, 4WD for business, RWD for pleasure.

Yes, I know that sounded stupid you don't have to tell me.

Back in the day I had Jeeps (XJ & ZJ) and they taught me all to well how to drift and how not to drift. The best part of 4WD is the option of 4WD.

Aka drift around in 2wd, mess up and get stuck, then pop it into 4 and get yourself out!

Both 4wd and rwd are for, er, pleasure.

Every car is a winter car if you're brave enough.

you'd have to be braver than me.

windows are permanently down, no heat - so no defrosters, no nanny controls (TSC, ABS, etc), a couple holes in the floor boards lol

(oh and a kid to transport to and from daycare)
