Fun in snow with a G35C 6mt

I don't think you'll see me doing this in mine.

very nicely directed! It reminds me test my Blizzaks on freshly packed snow and test what the VSA can do. (at the parking mall before it gets plowed).

I was really impressed that the VSA kept the CLS in check at all time. I had hard time understeering or oversteering!.

Sorry but that dude sucks at driving. No need to pull the e-break on a RWD car. LOL

Someone needs to teach him how to do donuts.

LMAO

Ya, cool video edits

No need to pull the e-brake when he can stick his head out the window and benefit from the afro-induced drag.

cool video and editing but that guy sucks at playing in the snow.
I had way more fun in my old pickup with a lot less snow on the ground and i'm from socal. Guess he is just being careful with his new toy , can't blame him for that.

Ever watch a movie where the concept was alright. Where the special effects were pretty good. But the overall execution of the project and content really just sucked?
Welp, here you go...
The guy can't even do a donut in the freakin' snow. How sad...Speaking of crimes, how about the others? Like why would you ruin that car with that blue color? And towards resale, what does his headrest look like?

I disagree with ur assesment that the color will hurt it's resale value. i think that blue color is cool but that's just my $0.51

I think he meant a certain hair care product might harm the resale value by damaging the headrest.

I thought the vid was kind of cool, although pulling on the e-brake didn't seem to do it for me.

Regardless, while it might not be the best video out there, the quality was still good.

I just watched it and was thinking 'pointless', and then saw all the posts beating me to it. Fairly unimpressive driving.

The 'music' was absolutly obnoxious -- I had to mute that fast!

Now if that was a frozen lake and the ice broke and he sank with his precious to a freezing death -- that would be a video!

Yes, that is Afr0Puff from the G35 forums. That was a WIG that he put on for the video. If you guys knew him you would know why he did that.

As for the Blue color, only 'special' people order that color!!

This is his first RWD car and I assume he is still learning RWD with that car (the video was taken back in December when he got the car, it wasn't even broken in yet).

Give the poor kid a brake...i'll teach him how to use the RWD at our next event!! You guys should come, Aug 16th at the Palisades park near the George Washington Bridge.

Okay guys, this is the first time I saw this thread...yes..that is Ersal (aka Afropuff on the G and my350z.com forums). He's a good guy and I give him props for the editing of that video. Mad skills... plus he used an old skool song by ANYTHING BOX!! That was the first week the kid got the G35....AND he learned manual on it....fuck, most of you fckers would have stalled the shit out of the car doing those lame donuts. You should have seen his beater prior to getting the G....give the dude a break, he was a bit excited on purchasing his first NICE car. I for one applaud you Ersal..... You showed courage and perseverance. bravo.

vive le resistance.
