Okay, I have driven in every condition from tornados, frozen lakes, feet of snow, inches of rain, mud, grass, and even dry pavement. I have driven all wheel, front wheel, and rear wheel.
But I can't seem to drive the Z in on icy slippery roads. If I try to accel, I just sit there. the car doesn't go. I realize this has to do with VDC and TC but I've driven with those too and I've never expierenced this. I've put 90 pounds in the back to help keep it down a bit, but it hasn't seemed to help.
Stopping slides my car too, the abs work but my stop distance is very great. I am afraid of going over 20 mph.
I know I'm not the only one in a cold climate, so what am I doing wrong? How does anyone else do it. On the highway too, I can't imagine what would happen if I was on that and it snowed.
I have the stock tires, but even so it should be that horrible.
Please help.
Everyone was right, I should have kept my saturn for a winter beater. I am humbled.
