My G is Terrible in the Snow...Help!

I cant imagine why my boosted G wont go anywhere.

Can any of you guys tell me at which point in the RPM range the turbo begins to spool? I thought it didn't engage until 2500-3000 rpm. If you're driving on snow, and you're driving a boosted G, and your turbo is spooling, then you're driving wrong for the situation. You want to learn to feather the accelerator, and really don't need to go past 3000 rpm. For braking on ice or snow, if your ABS engages, then you're braking wrong, you want to apply as much force but not enough to engage abs. Basically you will need to have your grandma teach you how she drives, so you drive like your grandma on snow.

HAHAHAHA! Ok you know how to drive on snow, be happy for yourself, be happy you know how to do something the majority of drivers on the road are unable to do. Don't make this a claim thread of how much better you are than anybody else, I could claim that I learned to drive in a small ski town which gets up to 400" of snowfall and drove there for 7 years, but the point is to help other drivers not bash on them. So u got an evo x, good for you because I want one also, but don't go out and try to race for slips over the internet, and if you're claiming you know how to drive rwd on snow, take your rwd to the race. Everybody knows that rwd isn't the best for winter conditions, so why claim that you can drive AWD or even FWD for that matter. It's like a baby claiming it can suck its thumb, of course it can do it.

Seriously, you completely missed what the OP was talking about.

I've never seen such displays of stupidity! 1/2 you retards need to go back to school and work on your reading and comprehension skills cuz apparently the school system has FAILED....
Although its been stated multiple times already.... this thread is meant as a joke and wake up call to all you dumb sh;ts who can't seem to READ or SEARCH for topics that have been discussed 1000 times already!
ITS NOT A POST ABOUT DRIVING IN SNOW!!!
Its pretty much proving how stupid most of you are on this forum and prob in real too.

In honor of all the great threads of people that cant search, dont do their research or simply cant figure out that "summer Preformance Tires" will NOT preform in the snow for reasons that I will not go into in this thread...This is my "Help - my G is terrible in the snow" contribution!
(enter Sarcasm mode)
My G is so Terrible in the snow that I refuse to drive it in the winter even with my Blizzaks on! I mean, I think I will have a better chance with my BMW motorcycle with summer tires on...Do they make snow chaines for my moto? Moderators please dont move my thread to the motorcycle section as this relates to Gs! I cant imagine why my boosted G wont go anywhere. Do tread compounds of summer tires prevent traction in the snow in ice? Show me proof! Why are are you haters telling me that I should search before I start a new thread on something that has been posted and discussed over a 1000 times? Why would someone post up an answer that is sarcastic instead of answering the simple question? I am too young and too busy to preform a simple search on winter traction issues and reasearch tires compound differences...

He just doesn't get it even after everyone else makes funny/sarcasm remarks as well like these:
But hey he has an Evo that can whoop us in a down hill race in over 2 feet of snow safely. I could probably beat him down, using the WOT methods and racing slicks pointed out above, but my car would probably be tore up and I might be dead or seriously injured lol. Damn newbs..internet smack talk is like winning the Special Olympics and not being "special"
Slicks will help with your traction issue. They grip the best on pavement therefore they will perform the best in the snow. If there is ice then simply go WOT, the tires will eventually find something to grip or they will blow and the rim will provide excellent traction as it digs into the road.
Studded tires, or so called "snow tires" don't do squat and are a waste of money. Plus, putting chains on your car just makes it look EMO.
Op, whats this search you speak of?

Heres your problem....
Youre not giving it enuf throttle. Try winding it up to 7k and then dumping the clutch, that should get you moving. If not you should probably try racing slicks... more contact area with the road! If that doesnt work, I heard they just came out with Teflon tire wraps for winter use... thatll get ya moving mad fast

I would rather you ask what intake to get than pretended to be a hotshot.

Shut up already nub. Nobody cares, you failed to understand the post and are just being a pissy *** beotch. You were wrong, accept it and move on. Plus this isn't high school nobody cares about your "evo" and thinks you are cool, so just move on already.
