The only way to travel in 10 inches of snow..

Went to a Chicago Wolves game last night in somewhat of a blizzard. Left the game early and could not resist a large, wide open parking lot, PSM off to do endless donuts....

996 TT is just such stable car, easy car to control, in any condition. Amazed, still, after 4 years. (apologize for the bad camera pics - next time I'll get video)

Thats a beautiful thing.

I have the same wheel/snow tire set up on my car.

Had a few inches earlier in the week.... runs great in the snow. Can embarrass quite a few SUV drivers with these cars in the snow. =)

Great to see it's not a garage queen for the winter!!

Agree, It is WAY easier to drive than any SUV as long as you are not tobogganing on top of the snow...lol

It would break my heart if I didn't drive it everyday, all winter long...

Funny in Calif, if it rains we cry and put a cover over the P-cars. Would not even imagine taking it out in snow. Boy we have a lot to learn.
