ya ive driven my dads f350 in 2w (when im too lazy to put it into 4w haha) so i kinda have an idea as to how its gonna be, but then again its completely different from a truck, with agressive treads, to a sports car, with mild all season treads. it should be fun in parking lots tho lol

haha sounds like the kind of crap me and my friends do. last year my buddy in his 95 mustang usually beat us (because my other friend drives a 97 malibu with no hand brake and i had a blacked out 99 grand am gt which even with hand brake was a pain in the *** lol) so this year i will win! but yes the cars condition is my number 1 priority at the end of the day so i hope i dont do anything TOO stupid haha

My car sits in the garage when it rains/snows/slush/ice :P

But when I did drive it in the snow, I just had some Falken All-Seasons and proceeded to drive like a smart person and I had no trouble.
