Today we had *really* bad snow in Chicago, and on the way to work I was fish-tailing all over the place. Within 3 blocks, it looked like I simply wasn't going to be able to avoid hitting someone. Finally, I remembered my car came with DTC (hey, I haven't had to drive in the snow since getting the car 2 years ago!). I'm mighty impressed - the car straightened up and drove fine in
4-6 inches of snow for the rest of my drive in, even on just the all-season tires I was using (I don't think my Z4 would have fared as well with its Goodyear F1s, traction control or not). Next winter, I'll have to snag some 16" wheels and get some snow tires - should be pretty unstoppable then. Of course, once I do that we'll never get snow again. ;) epbrown- posted
