RX7 = RWD, obviously gonna be hard on ice, but still not good.

On my girlfriends street last night, stopping outside her house, wheels just locked. Then going back up the hill i was messing about seeing how slippy it was just yanking the steering wheel, and the front wheels were just sliding.

Wasnt even cold last night either.

Becarfull people.

To be fair he did the exact same thing a few weeks ago, he's only had it about a month & he's lost it twice



He's no Vin Diesel.

I drive in town centres. Can't believe how many people drive like complete Bell Ends. Driving about 2cm from the car in front in Freezing Fog. I leave a big gap so I can avoid the massive pileups that are about to start, and people just dive into gaps

Also sick to death of Gritters. They're starting to ruin my wheels. Standard Sport rims going on at the weekend.

If they are really new tyres, then it would anyway. When I got my car, I had new pads fitted one day and new tyres the next, that was pretty scary - no grip pulling off or no feel stopping.

I also think if you drive too carefully you can make mistakes.
