Pretty much in the first pic, is where it was still sticking. Below that is was melting. Overnight it'll come down a bit lower.

good amount of snow at the top though! I was struggling to find grip. Like, REALLY struggling. Especially under braking, the back end would step out.

Rich,
Awesome photos! Especially 2 & 3rd ~ Should be prime candidates to be used in the calendar <IMHO> The snow, the trees, the lights, the angles.. all work together.

Dayum! Very cool shots (once again) . I wish I could go and get something similar, but there's already like six inches of snow on the ground (started getting that white **** yesterday) and I don't have winter tires for my car, so it's not moving anywhere...

Had an absolute blast with daddys 4motion Passat though

Yea, I thought so too, but that nose panel isn't very flattering ya know? No offence rich, I'm sure you understand. Any photo shop gods wanna give that a try?

Black nose panels are clearly a sure sign of serious performance


(sorry, I promise I'm not going to thread hijack any further!)
