Default Holy hell, roads are slippery...

I spent the drive home sideways due to assholes that don't know how to keep momentum up on slick roads. My damn tires had no traction. Several roads I had to turn around on because I couldn't make it up the hills. It was easy to see how a light rwd sportscar with slick rear tires would be entirely useless in this weather. Whoever takes their S out tomorrow, I hope you have better tires than I do.

And yes Jerry, my S had to play in the snow today... I can probably count the number of times it's seen foul weather on one hand.

thats a bummer but good thing you made it to your house with one car as a whole, not one car in many pieces! i'm lucky they delayed my finals because the snow is up past my bumper, and like you i have some "racing slicks" as i call them. lol.
