moe ghoul Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 Just maybe Ullr will grace us with a Pocono fresh snow day. I put an order in for 6" starting with some wet binder and finishing off with something drier and crustless. Me and Dan and Gepeto from TGR are thinking fresh trax and no crowds for 3 hours nonstop goodness. Beers in the lot. EC season is winding down, git sum! Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 We don't want wet snow at blue makes it to slow just blower. Fresh tracks should last about 30 minutes though lol maybe 45 minutes. I'll be there if the snow actually happens probably arrive around 745 3 hours nonstop would be one of my longest sessions this season at blue lol. Quote
toast21602 Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 Possibly. I'm hoping to. Also hoping it doesn't stick to roads. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote

toast21602 Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 Is your car AWD? No it's only 1-wheel. 1 Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 No it's only 1-wheel. Oh Lordy. Atomic Jeff said you don't like driving in snow. Quote
toast21602 Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 Oh Lordy. Atomic Jeff said you don't like driving in snow. I don't. I'd rather drive on dry roads like most people. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 I don't. I'd rather drive on dry roads like most people. I like driving on snow makes it seem worthwhile that I have AWD...for a short drive like to blue. I wouldn't want to drive all the way to Elk mountain in Vermont on snow. Would take all day. Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 Does AWD really make much difference in snow other than when you are stuck and trying to get out? I would think your tires make a lot more difference otherwise. I understand from Mr.Gordon that the tires are the things on your car that make contact with the road. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) Yeah AWD makes a big difference but being a good snow driver also makes a big difference. Good tires make a bigger difference though. From a complete stop AWD shines https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SU2esZC7Wmw Edited March 9, 2017 by GrilledSteezeSandwich 2 Quote
Shadows Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 I like people that buy subies/evos and lower them with street tires and such. Getting some good use out of that awd. Shouldve bought a civic Quote
Ski2Live Live2Ski Posted March 9, 2017 Report Posted March 9, 2017 Thanks, the CR video that YT showed me after that did emphasize that tires make a lot more difference and that getting started was the main benefit of AWD 1 Quote

Last year's blizzard at blue indiggio's and my subbies were absolutely buried. We barely shoveled, just drove out. Our friend in the suburban had to be pushed out however. I done a few rider-of-the-storm rides over the years. A few all the way up to Vt. Love my outback (with paddle shifters). I also roll with snow tires 5 Quote

indiggio Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 Last year's blizzard at blue indiggio's and my subbies were absolutely buried. We barely shoveled, just drove out. Our friend in the suburban had to be pushed out however. I done a few rider-of-the-storm rides over the years. A few all the way up to Vt. Love my outback (with paddle shifters). I also roll with snow tires I've driven (unfortunately) back home from Vermont in a few blizzards as well in my subie without problems and no snow tires either. Can't count the number of times I've driven up to Blue to find numerous cars stranded going up Mountain Drive. #nofriendsonapowderday It better be snowing!!!!! nuthin in Allentown yet................... Nothing here in Hellertown either. Checked the webcams and saw a groomer go by, snow falling in it's headlights! Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 Looks like maybe a half inch on the webcams for blue. Quote
indiggio Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 Just started snowing down here a bit ago, starting to cover the lawn. Damn work! I hate you! Quote
RidgeRacer Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 A dusting or a little more here in the pocs but still snowing. Have fun today everyone. I'll be thinking about you while at work. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted March 10, 2017 Report Posted March 10, 2017 On the way timing for this little storm is perfect. 32 degrees in Whitehall. Roads are wet. Quote
