OUCH....must have gotten snow blindness....thought it was an open snow field to back up into??? I am surprised the tow truck operator did not jack up the back end of the porsche alittle and slide something under between the frame and wall to help reduce the grinding???? Oh well....accidents happen

Maybe it's the amount of snow combined with the summer tires that Turbo is running. Having spent 14 years working with Porsche, and a few years owning one, I can tell you that summer tires are impossible on snow, regardless of driving ability or electronic aids.

[/QUthe snow maybe was a factor but those are his winter tyres/wheels. he's got a set of black 22's with the summer tyres on in the garage. i know what you mean about summer tyres though, they suck in the snow
