Default Re: Winter driving related question

If I drove 3 mustang GT's, and a 93 Firebird Formula in the snow, all with crappy *** tires the 1st 3 being Goodyear gatorbacks and the other being near dry rotted
Goodyear GA's(Was my 1st nice car:-D) in the snow with Lil' effort, I dont see how I could have a problem with a car with far less torque, abtrusive traction control, and better all over design. RWD is better in the snow if you ask me, easier to correct the spin, unlike a fwd, which takes a bit more rustling, granted you have to try harder to make it tail out.

Also I drove my old 2000 Lightning from my work all the way home about 9-10miles in a snow storm with about 3inches on the ground. Now that was not fun. Took me 2 lights to get out of a intersection. LOL Man that thing would not grip. Didnt get stuck till i got into my driveway. It was on the stock tires some good years i think they had sc in the name. Just a funny story.
