I've never driven in snow, looks like it can be fun though.

LOL my girl would say can you do a 180 e-brake turn and do that again!? She's crazy and at times I think she has too much faith in my driving skills.

I think he was more lucky than anything else. He braked awfully hard for snow driving and it didn't sound like he was on the gas until it was almost too late but it's hard to tell from the video. Still entertaining none the less.

so I dont have an STI yet, but hopefully in a week or so that will be a different story. But what do I have to do to get it to sound like that? DP and TBE?
