SHO Storm of 2013; Pennsylvania

[geswek]

The weather channel told us it was going to be a light dusting today; it's still going, we are somewhere around 5 or 6 inches--cars are all over the place, accidents left and right. It's getting really bad out there!

I decided to take the SHO to a huge unplowed parking lot to take some awesome snow shots. She had no issues plowing the snow and getting out of the parking lot.

I also went out earlier and picked up some stuff at Wawa; the tyres and AWD system continue to impress me. I had the usual spin at take off with the tuned engine, once the AWD kicked in I was gripping and moving along; no issues here.

cool shots!!

 

[geswek]

Thanks; I did the best I could. I wanted some super clear stable shots but putting my knee in like 5 inches of snow was not an option.

I still like them--definitely something I will never see again when I move back to Texas next year.

Loved the pics Storm! k:

Added a well deserved "thanks" for your posting(s)!

Also pretty cool to hear about how your SHO sled pulled like a mule through the inclimate weather, whilst leaving others behind to fend for themselves. Ha!

Good stuff there Maynard!

 

[geswek]

No kidding man!

I watched a woman in front of me slide straight into a boulder earlier when I went to Wawa. I got out to check on her and she was OK; said her car suddenly wouldn't turn LOL. I looked at her tyres and sure enough they were some summer tyres--tsk tsk.

I am utterly amazed at how well the SHO is handling and these tyres are amazing. Thanks for the recommendation Mike!

That thang looks even sweeter in snow!

 

[geswek]

haha, thanks SHOdded! I definitely LOVE the photos.

I was contemplating taking them and decided screw it--once in lifetime opportunity.

Awesome winter fun!  GREAT pics.  Looks meaner in the snow i think.  Thanks geswek!

 

[geswek]

Yes it does; those tyres man--they are BOSS!

I just wish I had gone with the 255 instead of 245; however I did pack quite a bit snow in the wheel wells and afraid that extra 1" or so of sidewall would have cause a little grief.

Very nice!  Your black SHO looks great in the snow.  I was hoping to do the same later. 

EDTI- Well, not enough snow here for pictures.

Great pictures Storm!  Looking good, be careful if you're still out in the SHO..get home before someone hits you! Just started here about 30 minutes ago.

 

[geswek]

I'm home sir.

Looks like it stopped.

Did you hear about 50 car accident on turnpike?

Sent from a mobile, I think.

 

[mjhpadi]

No haven't heard about the accident. Was it on the East/West turnpike or the Northeast Extension?

 

[geswek]

West I think; over by Morgantown.

White walls?

 

[DJE624]

They look like Tremblants?!?

 

[geswek]

WOW, those are not white walls. I had snow stick to sides of wheels from plowing the parking lot.

Sent from a mobile, I think.

 

[geswek]

I had to of course get the shot in front of the dealership tonight.

Nice composition.

Pics look AWESOME.  Glad the SHO did great in the snow.  Just bummed you got more snow they we did up here in Wmspt.  Been wanting to get my other toy out.  The dealer pic, I love it.
