I made the trip last Thursday through the snowstorm in central New York and was amazed with the way the car handled in snow. I simply could not make her slip at all...

So I'm going to do it again this weekend and cruise over to Snowshoe Mountain in West Virginia. They've received 7 feet of snow so far this season and have 35 trails open. If anyone feels like being spontaneous I can handle 4 to 6 sets of skis in the roof transport system. (including poles)

Ciao!

 

The road to Snowshoe is awesome! I drove there once in an beat up Audi and it was fun. What kind of tires do you have on 911?

 

265/35R-18 Pirelli Winter 240 SnowSport N3 (Porsche) XL


225/40R up front

Ya, I'm looking forward to the drive as much as the skiing...

 

sounds good! just watch out for those crater sized pot holes in the parking lots.. i've taken my lowered 4S skiiing lots of times before but i'm always paranoid in the parking lots

 

sounds like it would be a lot of fun, but like Jason said, so long as there are no potholes.....

 

I would love to take the p-car out in the snow sometime and do some skiing.

 

heading out at 9 a.m. tomorrow if anyone wants to join. I'll text my address whomever asks to go along: nathaniel.dailey@gmail.com

 

That drive was amazing ! It was like a religious experience and I have a whole new level of appreciation for the car... there was an 86 mile stretch of switchbacks up and down and back up to 4800 Ft. Too bad I couldn't stay an extra day and get used to the altitude. lack of O2 made it weird. Skiing was so so. The bars, comedy club and dance club were fun tho.

I've got the same ones - Killer in the snow!

 

Niice. Didn't know Pirelli has N3 specs. After the diff rebuilt, I plan to do some snow drivings. Currently car is already a handful in wet, let alone in snow.

I told you! That road is almost like a Col De Turini (see pic). Wow... I didn't know they have comedy clubs there now. Glad to see someone's enjoying the 911 to the fullest!

 

Here's the route... notice the terrain relief. I'm sure the twisties in Italy are much nicer ;>)
