another excellent AUDI adventure

[James Russell]

Today was awesome for my 4ksq!!!  I am in Bozeman Montana, and there is a
lot of snow.  A group of six vehicles, 5 trucks and my audi, went up in the
Hyalite area, a local access road up to the mountains.  When we first
arrived there was a vehicle blocking the road, a 2wd truck none the less.
It cleared and off we went.

There was about 5-8 inches of snow on the road, the 4wd trucks were having
fun with their light back ends.  I got lots of looks driving my Audi up
there.  I have new Blizzaks, that was the key.  With the differentials
locked I went to the top.

When we stopped I had to rock it a bit to get it moving but once I was
going the Audi took everything the road put up.  Everyone was impressed
with the performance of my Audi, they called it the 'little beast' cause it
went everywhere all the trucks went but was a bit smaller.

It was a blast, I recommend taking your quattros out in the snow sometime,
put a good set of tires on it and have fun!

Good luck to all, have a great winter.
