Yeah, GSD3s are not for cold weather let alone snow. Even in my '89 Chevy Beretta I was easily spinning the tires at 30 MPH in 5th gear.

You can turn off traction control, switch to manual shifting and try starting in 2nd or 3rd gear, but that gets old real fast. And when the car automatically downshifts for you, you have to completely stop to reset to a higher gear.

So you don't think the F1 all-seasons will cut it?
