Are you talking about street racing from a dig?

 

Forget the street racing from a dig part... he thinks he has a chance against an M3 or RS4 with a stock G.

 

Bet my Tvr will walk Mitch's rs4

 

I beat an M3 once. It was parked on the side of the street, and I was walking.

 

I raced this guy who drove a m3. Stop light to stop light.
I won bcuz I had me running shoes on boiii.

Ok so, for one if you even think you're going to be an RS4 or an M3 with a stock G, you're wrong. With that cleared up you need to organize your priorities. If you want longevity, go with an all season tire or if you want the most grip in dry situations, get a summer tire as most summer tires do fairly well in wet weather.

Continentals DW is a good summer tire, the DWS is a great all season. Right now I'm on Yoko YK580's and they're great. You just need to organize whats most important for your deriving. If you're going to the snow, you'll be toast in summer tires.

Pro-Tip: Typically you shouldn't mash the pedal off the line anyways since theres a slight delay in power, push the pedal with moderate force until it stops, much smother take off. But seriously if you wan a race, go to Infineon and do their drag nights.

 

Remember, automatics have race mode.

P - Park
R - Race
N - Neutral
D - Drive

 

When my electronic turbo kicks in I will smoke just about any pole

 

But you already do without the e-turbo...

 

seems legit.

 

Don't forget to chip your car!

OP: to be serious, you don't need to worry about weather much in CA. You can run summer performance tires all year round in the Bay Area without a problem. They'll brake in rain just fine, and still offer better handling than any all-season tires can.

As for Tahoe, you can rent an AWD to go. It sucks driving RWD out there. Either way, it doesn't matter, you'll still need chains as all-seasons don't make a difference in the snow at all.

BTW, if you are looking for better handling, I would suggest some new struts, sway bars, and 18" wheels to slim down the sidewalls a bit.

 

Haha, thanks for a good laugh, guys. Will try to race an M3 in R-mode. lol...

I went to Tahoe (South) on AS tires and had no problems in light snow and some slush, just needed to drive slowly and steady. Not sure summer tires would behave the same. But braking on the snow crust from 15 mph was pretty fun with ABS kicking in like crazy.

DWS for my size 225/55/17 are on backorder on tirerack, I'm not sure DW come in that size either.
