UK has Weather Forecast in Connected Drive as standard then this view is a Rain Radar that we get. Used to be naff and this is slightly better I noticed in the G01.

Ice Time

My dirty beast taking a breather after a few laps on the ice gymkhana.
Mallets Bay, Lake Champlain, Feb 2019





Side note: not the best car for a gymkhana style course

why it's not a good car for that? it would not allow you to slide around or spin freely?

There was a 360 out of a drift turn on the course and I was terrified to try it due to center of gravity concerns. Nonetheless I gave it one honest shot and the torque distributor just yanked all the potential out of the maneuver

The figure eight was an utter disaster too

Still had a blast for a short while. [Trying to] go sideways is just too much fun!

4' x 8' sheet goods

I made sure before I bought it that it can fit at least one- 4' x 8'.
this is a one sheet of 1/2" drywall
Have to figure a better hatch tie down, if/when the hatch bounced it beeped and I was afraid it was going to auto open while I was driving.

1. Sunset in Gallup, NM. My skills and point and shoot camera don't do it justice. Check the flags. The wind was 25 mph plus at the time.

2. Traveling west on I-40 near Flagstaff, AZ

Took the car for a touchless wash and I'm quite happy about the quality of the wash.

Photo from last summer. The bright grill trim is really pronouncing that nose and making me think about toning it down with the black. Wife likes it just as it is.
