By the time I left the office today, we had 2-3 inches of snow accumulation on the roads. VERY messy out. Here's a simple math equation to summarize my experience:
350Z + 275-35-19 SP9000s + Snow = Abandoned car
Yup . . . I ended up leaving the car @ work (hopefully won't have too many tickets on the windshield when I go retrieve it tomorrow). With the traction control turned ON, the car wouldn't budge (the TCS on the Z applies the rear brakes when wheel slippage is detected). With the TCS turned off . . . well . . . the car REALLY wasn't controllable at all - even when trying to get moving in 2nd or 3rd gear.
I ended up bumming a ride home with a coworker.
