Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask theBuddha, or myself.

It's also a fucking riot to drive in the winter.

It's rear wheel drive and has zero modern nannies. It's still pretty safe, though not by modern standards. I'm comfortable with that, even in the slipperiest of conditions.

It's also predictable. You can throw it sideways and steer around a corner using the gas pedal instead of the steering wheel. You can execute a Scandinavian Flick on command. You can use the handbrake to control how sideways you are.

It's a very busy car to drive if you want it to be. You'll have both feet going while using one hand on the steering wheel and another on the shifter alternating with the handbrake. All while in an antique Volvo! It's an absolute riot.

You'll either giggle the whole way or you'll be terrified the whole way.

When you feel the car go sideways at 60 mph in the snow for the first time, it tends to raise some hairs on your neck.

But, if you watch the repeated gentle inputs to steering and how smooth everything is, you'll calm down pretty quickly and enjoy the ride.

I would be terrified, no doubt about that!
