After pushing my neighbor a block and half to the main road in his VW Passat I got in the SHO and blasted my way through the 15"+ of unplowed snow on the roads with no help while the other neighbors just say and watched.  It was fun carrying it sideways and feathering the gas so the BOV's were making it seem even cooler!

The only down side to drifting through that much snow is the insane amount of it now packed into my rims.  I couldn't go over 65 on the highway today because I thought my teeth would get shaken out of my head.  I guess I will be getting a car wash on the way home to clear the rims out.  The wife just told me the plows finally came by so I now have packed snow to drift on without clogging up rims.  Of course that means I have a driveway to clear out when I get home.
