Default Snow Drying

How do u guys dry off your cars after a long day in the snow. I find it easiest to wrap it up in a large towel and stick a hair dryer in it. The car gets steaminh hot in a places. O yeah, I flip over the car for obvious reasons. What r ur methids.

I use an air compressor between runs, but at the end of the day, I go ahead and take a few items off for thourough cleaning and lubing.

actually what you should do is just take out the engine and electronics and make sure everything is dry(paper towel, air compressor, blow on it, idk...). WD-40 the shocks so they dont get rusted...[8D]
