The intention of this Thread is to be a place for TSX, CL, and TL Enthusiasts (Hell if we got any RSX , Legends, EL's, etcetera well take em too... ) to post pictures of what Our Cars can do in the Snow, if u catch my Drift

Right now there’s a nice snow storm coming to the East Coast and Id like to see some pics guys


Keep it in the parking lots, and most of all Keep it Safe...But have some fun and lets see some pics





Mods: Someone wanna Sticky this...pritty please

Don't you think it's kind of lame that we need snow to "drift"?

You don't need snow to make drifting in a FWD car possible. If the suspension is set up properly, you can make a FWD car drift all the time.

I know it possible to drift in a FWD vehicle with snow, its just pointless to try when its a lot easier with a RWD vehicle. And with this, I'm done. Lets quite bickering and crapping up is thread.

No, it just I think most of us have outgrown taking our car to a parking lot and doing doughtnuts. I didn't spend 30-35k on my car to do that. You want to encourage people to go do doughnuts, go to a Civic/RSX/Intergra forum.

Yeah well If you Have, outgrown it, please simply shut the fuck up..some of us have and we dont need some :killer: fart ruining our good time, esp online where hes powerless to do anything.... Taking a car to a parking lot and having some fun in the snow, is a ton of fun, esp if done properly and safely...

Dont see why it would be illegal either, Ive sat watching some guys on bikes doing wheelies ect in a lot, cop stoped and watched too... your in a parking lot, not hurting anyone, would u rather me pulling E-brakes going up and down ur neighborhood streets...? I spent the $ on my car, Plus the $ for my mods, To do this.... so please shut up

Don't see why it's illegal, you do it yourself then. Make sure a cop is near and let us know how it goes, OK?

Its legal and many cops encourage it(as long as the owner doen't get pissed). Spending time in a praking lot alone sliding the car around helps you to learn its limits and lets you practice losing control. That way you don't learn for the first time while sliding down a public road toward an oncoming car.

Sorry, I just don't think anybody is going to take their car out and do donuts in their FWD car so they can take pictures and post them. Nice in theory, I'd just be surprised if anybody else posted pictures.

From personal experience I know cops DON'T like it. Some of my friends learned the hard way.
