It is all about the tires. I about wrecked the Talon the other day. 1st time in snow with it. AWD means the whole car shifts to the feft when you take off, No ABS, as soon as I would hit the brakes it would slide. Had to use engine breaking, and power through to turn. Once moving, it was great, all you had to do was give it a little gas and the car would correct itself. Get into the boost though, it would instantly spin. Has brand new "summer" tires on it. BF Comp TA's. Getting a set of Blizzak's. As for the Corvette, oil changed, fresh coat of Zymol, battery tender hooked up, and cover is on.
