Angry never driving my wrx to tahoe

again...

so yesterday was the first time ever i drove my car up to tahoe.
i was excited at first, but also a bit scared as i am on so3's
as it turned out, the so3's were ok up there but my brakes weren't so great hahaha.. couldn't get 'em to warm up!!

but the worst of it was when i got back to my car this afternoon, i found some numbnut had decided to "wipe" his feet on my door???

so now i have scratches on my driver side door
and i've decided that my car is never to go to tahoe again...

ok. sorry.. had to vent

sorry to hear about some assclown wiping their feet on your door. i would have personally used your bumper. j/k
good to hear that your tires did alright as i am also runnin s0-3's.
as for the brakes, i noticed that they take some time to warm in the cold. on the way back from SEMA i drove for about 250 miles w/o having to touch my brakes. it was pretty cold and raining at the time. when i pulled off to get some gas, i hit the brakes, and there was nothing. it sucked. kinda scared me for a split second.

i feel your pain, v.

next time you head to kirkwood or n*, just be sure to stick it to the next lame @$$ two-planker that does the littlest thing to **** you off! oops...i forgot...you are a two-planker! that really blows that some disrespectful jack@$$ f'ed w/ your ride. just remember, what comes around, goes around. so the bastard will have his/her "day in the sun." just be thankful you had a relatively safe day of skiing & driving.

take care o' that knee o' yours & btw, i'm heading up this sat!

I'm surprised you didn't mention the effects of the road sand! My 2 year old WRX needs a new windshield and paint job already... the paint on my '95 TBird looked better at 7 years old than my WRX did after one winter in Reno.

That would totally ruin my entire vacation!! It's good that you (and most people) take these things better than I do.
