So a guy on my facebook that's still in Whitehorse uploaded some rubbernecking photos. Someone apparently decided to drift a corner, and...




Now notice there are no tracks up to it really? Apparently it hit the snowbank and got some air before its strategic landing.





Oh yeah, no-one was hurt

Maybe the Yukon should join the 20th century with the rest of Canada. Bunch of silly lumberjacks.

Oh, that reminds me, a few weeks ago I was outside smoking a square at my friend's house when we heard this loud crash. We debated over what it was and whether we should walk a few blocks to see what happened, finally decided it was too cold to bother. Two days later at work one of my friends tells me a guy we used to work with wrecked his car, into a house. Turns out that was what we heard, dude and one of his friends were tripping, guy lets his buddy drive his car and ends up jumping a curb and plowing into someone's house doing 50. What really freaked me out was my friend who heard it with me guessed correctly that it was indeed a car crashing into a house. How he knew what that sounded like from 5 blocks away I have no clue.

Hit the boxes there and took out the internet in that area, but barely missed the transformer. So close.

Wow.  Drifting aside, talk about driving too fast for the road conditions.

Can't really drift with AWD, you can lose traction, but an actual drift is impossible unless you've got VCD control and crank the power 100% to the rear, which is impossible on even the WRX STi.

That's why Subies make such great rally cars, they stick the corners even in the dirt.

So Ken Block doesn't drift his AWD???
Besides we all know drifting in snow requires the studded tires. Noobs. Actually rally car/ drifters love the snow with the studded tires because the control is so much better and more predictable.

Eh. STi's are awesome cars, don't get me wrong, but around here, anyway, they've become the n00b Fast and Furious wannabe vehicles. Alot of wrecks involving them.
