I get the bus to work when it snows, they appear to have winter tyres and drive at the same speed as normal :shock:

I rather like my old (air cooled) rear wheel drive Beetle in the snow - all that weight on the end!

And I have a set of winter tyres on one of my Scirocco from Oct - April. the grip compared to standard is outstanding!

Rear wheel drive and snow is one of the best combo's for an andrenaline rush, if you want to play -)

Sometimes it can be as good as blasting down an icy red or black run not knowing where the patches of ice are :)

Big rush :)

Love RWD in the snow :)

'Smartcar' driver here (which are rear wheel drive), and virtually any amount of acceleration and it pirouettes: or virtually any amount of brake and it pirouettes. :shock:

It tends to always end up facing forward again so I get to my destination, just a little bit dizzy though.

Playful yes, adrenaline rush? not really :(
if I'm not skiing then I'm kayaking.
