Too early...

porshah · 10-29-2011, 06:49 PM

For the white stuff on the ground. Haven't even finished raking the leaves yet!

BlackMoupe · 10-29-2011, 07:22 PM

I'm out in Montana now....Its too cold. And this weird white stuff falls from the sky. I feel you

You should somehow photoshop a BMW logo or something cool on the hood using the snow and then submit the photo to POTM

say it ain't so!!!!!

ZStig · 10-29-2011, 08:16 PM

I had trouble getting out of the driveway. WITH snow tires on

pokeybritches · 10-29-2011, 08:24 PM

This is where I was this morning:

85 degrees, but no Z4

My underwater camera takes pictures that look like they were taken with My First Camera.

Believe it or not, that is from iPhone 4. Completely un-edited.

It is WAY too early for that white stuff but thankfully we didn't get any in the midwest. I have to say though, our cars have some of the best traction control I've ever seen. I couldn't get out of the driveway in my G37 if it flurried, but I've had no problems getting past 6 inches of snow in the Z.

I usually turn TC off under 30mph in the snow

The stock Continentals. I know everyone hates them but I haven't had any problems. The TC is so subtle it is hard to tell when it kicks in. I had summer tires on my old car, that's probably worth noting.

ZStig · 10-31-2011, 03:08 PM

thats very surprising to me. I had trouble getting through 1" of snow on the stock tires on my z4 3.0.

I also find the TC detrimental to getting the car moving in the snow. Its great in allowing just enough slip to get the tail out on any corner in 2nd gear though!

here's my snowbird....note the multiple tire tracks on one side, lol. not easy to get up that hill for some reason. maybe because the snow tires are much better at going forwards than backwards
