SNOW!

SNOW!
Damn, this is my first winter with my Z. We just had a big snow (6") and I feel like I am riding on sleds for tires. I am probably the most nervous person on the rode. If some idiot hits my car.....

Re: SNOW!
Wow man you all have ***** of steal. I got stuck it the City ONCE when it snowed and almost broke my steering wheel off trying to drive home I was holding on so tight.
I have Mich Pilots on the rear and that suuuuk in the snow. How are the stock Toyo's for bite? I have them on the front and might pull a switch for now to move around my driveway at least.

Re: SNOW!
Skully , There's a few but not very often do I run into another Z on the road. (Usually when I do I am driving my 4x4!)Calgaryzclub.ca is I think the only web based Z point for owners in the area. I haven't joined the club yet because they want 35-40bucks and I just don't see a benefit to it. I think they post the date for the Z rally that occurs in the summer and draws a pretty big turn out of Z owners from all regions, not just Calgary but I have never been to one.

Re: SNOW!
Just got 8" of snow here in MA. Take your Z to the mall parking lot and pull some "horrors", that's the only way to learn to drive in the snow.
I have Z-rated Dunlop snow tires on, a little pricey but well worth it. One word of caution, do not take a hard left and downshift into 2nd at 35 MPH. I almost got two complete revolutions on that one.
