As the Winter storm made it's way up the Eastern seaboard dumping about 8" (So Far) I decided to take the Prowler out in the snow to see how the Cat would do in the snow. NOT to worry I did not get out onto any public roads. Well I was out I took some video I am sure you will enjoy.

Spoons,

I thought the cat was front wheel drive .

Cool movie. I wish I could get the backend loose like that on a dry road! Couldn't get the second clip to come up though ...

Great films! I wouldn't have the guts to do that around here with all the salt on the roads. Loved seeing how well it handled in the snow, especially the great traction......NOT!

Paul,

Don't worry I did NOT drive the Prowler on any roads, the salt and sand would ruin the Prowler. I took the Prowler out for about 5 min in the the Parking lot behind my condo. That was it.

Great stuff Brian!

It reminds me of when I lived up north. I used to practice in a parking lot during the first snowfall each year. Being able to know how your car will respond during a skid definitely sharpens your skills and hopefully help avoid an accident.

Now I know what the people sitting behind me when I left home this morning got to see as I tried to make it up the hill from our driveway to the main road!

I wish I didn't have to drive the kat in this kind of weather. Luckily we only get a few snowstorms a year.

I can only get the second clip to work. I have tried the first one numerous times but it will not perform for me.

I don't miss CT one bip after driving the Prowler to work all week with the top down in this beautiful weather (74*F and sunny).

I'll be in Newtown at the end of July.... maybe we can all get together at the Marry Holly Inn?
