    As the recent storm "Nemo" hit the North East, I'd figure it'd be a good time to hop in Kowalski (My R60) and have some fun!

    Looks like fun, your handbrake works well. The tires not as well. Put some winter shoes on that bad boy & rule the world. :Thumbsup:

    Nice vid, thanks for sharing. :)

    Seemed like slower & wider looping so was wondering. Musta been greasy and/or non-winter tires.

    Still - very fun to see and hear! Thanks

    Yup, non winter tires... They Continental DWS's so not the best tires for snow.
