    Its getting late anyways. We rarely get snow so its fun to take advantage with how easy it is to lose traction.

    Lol speak for yourself there. My truck has a 290 something v6. Same motor exactly as a 350 with two less cylinders. The ass end is so light and it doesn't help it's a long bed. I mean when I turn real hard and gas it I go side ways easy lol. But the snow does make it a shit ton easier with hardly any effort. The snow also brings out the kid inside 97% of the people no matter what age they are.
    You know better; next time will be a ban.

    I completely agree. That definitely sounds easier to lose traction in at any given moment than a Miata. I have to do things like clutch kicks or staying real close to redline to get it to slide. It was really easy to get it to slide in the snow though, it was spinning in third gear at 35ish mph going down South Cobb Drive in the snow. lol

    Lol poor Miata's. One of my buddies has one and when he first got it like five years ago he let me take it drifting in the rain.

    In stock form they really are lacking in the power department. They handle very nicely, but the people that swap in larger engines have the right idea.
