nice photos mate! Tyres certainly look the business too, and I thought my nockian winter ones looked chunky ;D. Mind you, dont fancy those sort of temperatures. My brother has been to Russia a few times and is off to Mongolia soon where current temp is about -40 so he's experienced that sort of cold but I think he'd prefer the other job his company are doing in Saudi at the momment instead where temps are at the other end of the scale ;D

so how do you find the mig handles in the Russian winter conditions Sev? We're all softies here in the UK since we dont get that much snow/ice and we're not really geared up for those sort of conditions so when we do get a fair amount everything grinds to a halt in places. Its not just that the roads arent gritted properly or that most people havent even heard of winter tyres, its just that lack of experience means that so many drivers just dont have a clue (you may have seen the photo on here that someone posted of a BMW with the snow chains on the front wheels ;D).Must say that the winter tyres on mine made a big difference and at least the heater works well unlike previous cars Ive had. Just havent had the nerve to drift her yet!

By the way Omega is very pleasing on drifting. Predictably breaks down into a skid, projected from it comes out. Very nice and easy to do this at Omega

maybe I should take advantage of the skidpan course that is being advertised again on all these flyers I keep seeing stuck to any available post/sign round my way?Then again, cant really afford any more tyres at the momment  ;D
