I'm an optimist. The weather will be fine & if it is a bit dicey just drive to the conditions & you will be OK. You have to make your own decision about installing snow tires. If it was me I would not. Although I am running tractor tires from Wally World.
Turn on your driving lights to warm the road up in front of the MINI, simply a brilliant idea! :idea:
Paul & Sue hope you cam make it. -

Now that is the spirit.
If you want I can bring my Leatherman tool & you guys with summer tires cam grove them into intermediates. :crazy:
I'm not sure my MINI will get washed either. -
Oil getting topped off, need a rotate + balance but will have to do with out this run!
Wash will be done for sure though since I was slacking at the dinner. Hahha might use that tool and make some wanna be mudders. ;p

I don't know my summer tires were pretty unhappy this morning. The drive is starting to feel like an F1 race, tire choice could decide who gets to order lunch first

It was spitting snow this morning and my summers felt okay on the road. If it's dry on Saturday I think they'll be fine. I've noticed I can get them to slide on the pavement a bit more with these low temperatures, but it's manageable. :deadhorse:

Yea but when will it get up to those temps? Probably after lunch and in the sunlight. My tires were fine this morning after they get some heat in them from highway miles, but the onramp was slippery

FWD doesn't drift, it pushes. Might you be referring to trailing throttle oversteer?
Now that can be fun!
(professional driver closed course do not attempt) :lol: -

I thought Cooper wasn't coming? For the record I experinced a big push then a massive bog as I let off the power and tried to get going again without downshifting

Sounds like a lot of fun. I wonder if they would miss me at work....

Nah work won't miss you. They have another 51 saturdays to see you!
