Camaros in the snow

Show us your car in the snow if you have it out. I drove mine on the factory Goodyear all-seasons and it did OK except for the really slick packed snow/ice. The snow/ice mode dials back throttle response and seems to help with traction control. My driveway has a steep grade, and when it was snow covered I let the traction control just crawl up the hill and it made it up. I had it floored in 1st gear and it just crawled up the hill at about 1100 rpm. I was worried it would slide backwards down the hill!
I also noticed the engine cranks more when it is really cold before it fires. I am assuming it is priming the HPFP or maybe extra fuel in the cylinders to warm up faster. |
We just had a pretty big snow storm here in Michigan, and my 18 1LT V6 with 18" factory all seasons did fairly decent IMO. Driveway was unplowed and drifted over a bit, and I got stuck with TC on. Turned it off and gave it some juice and spun hard to make it, but it worked lol. The TC and snow/ice mode have their place, but sometimes they make things worse in the snow

She spends most of her time in track mode, with nannies off, unless I need cruise control... https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...70dbbd8ece.jpg Sent from my SM-G965W using Tapatalk |
