yea there's enough salt dust on the street to get my silverado sideways down Rt. 59. I hope they are right with the 1 to 3 inches tonight.

See... since I am front wheel drive drifting is completely different. I control the angle mostly with the e brake and the direction with the throttle. If you do it right the car will actually snap harder side to side than a RWD car...

I fixed up the revo for tomorrow race today at work, then took it out for a little test and tune. Doing huge dirfts in the snow is cool .

Not cool though when you lose control and slam into a curb and take out a pushrod (revo) .
