315 BFG DR's in the snow

I just got back from my new year's festivities, and as I walked out of the party, I was greeted with several inches of snow. I thought, 'Oh great, I'm never getting home.' All I have to say is, people really exaggerate how bad these tires are in the rain, much less the snow! I made my 10 mile or so trek with no problems at all, driving like a sane human being. I kept her straight and in one lane without too much of a problem. I had a bit of wheel spin taking off from a dead stop. Stopping was even great. I had a hell of a worse time with old mostly bald 245 gatorbacks. If you can drive like a normal person, then there is no trouble at all. I even got up to about 40mph in the real deep stuff. Only real problem I had was when my dumps would collect snow and the car would get real quiet for a second or two, and when I did decide to have a little fun and slid into the completely undriven in lane, which did require some throttle to get out of. All in all, I wouldn't be that afraid to drive the car in 2 or so inches at all, if I had to.

I hope everyone else is having a good time tonight! Happy Nude Deer!


Here's some snowy cell phone cam randomness. My car makes really cool wide tracks in the snow!

My 315 tracks are as wide as my foot is long! That makes me so happy.

Sorry if none of this make sense. I'm ultra tired.

I take it that I should be fine with my Nitto drag radials then in the rain.

I'm sure you'd be alright in the rain, although wouldn't you wanna just walk around in the rain? Possibly with a white t-shirt on? Maybe with a digital camera as well?
